More Rad Queers from Graham Kolbeins

After starting his Rad Queers with a short documentary on LA’s the Payasos, artist/curator/videographer Graham Kolbeins has recently posted a second video in the series.

The video tells the story of what Kolbeins calls the “fabulous and fearless performance artist/playwright Ian MacKinnon. In his one-man show Gay Hist-Orgy, MacKinnon guides the audience on an erotic journey through the hidden history of same-sex love, examining homosexuality’s impact on ‘the progress of art, philosophy, culture, and politics with equal parts insight and wit.”

Sounds interesting. Check it out.

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
