Vaginal Davis: On Dangerous Ground

von Vaginal Davis, Bibbe Hansen, Felix Knoke, Jenny Schlenzka, Julia Große

Format:Softcover

The artist Vaginal Davis certainly moves 'on dangerous ground' with her transgressive shuffling of gender and genre boundaries. The self-described “sexual repulsive” co-founded several art/punk bands in her expansive 40-year-plus career, namely Afro Sisters, ¡Cholita!, Pedro, Muriel & Esther (PME), black fag and Tenderloin. As a writer and “Whoracle et Delphi”, Ms. Davis turns her quirky hairy eyeball to the collective practice of making music in the saucy underground scenes of Los Angeles and Berlin. In their contributions, longtime comrades and collaborators Bibbe Hansen (artist and Warhol Silver Factory habitué) and Felix Knoke (guest performer for The Hidden Cameras and band member of Tenderloin) rave about joint performances and rehearsals, divulging sacred secrets and rifts. Bruce “Judy” LaBruce, Glen Meadmore and Lisa “Suckdog” Carver make surprise guest appearances, along with images from live performance spectacles The White to Be Angry, Trust Fund, Interracial Dating Game, We’re Taking Over, Afro De Sade and Camp/Anti-Camp: A Queer Guide to Everyday Life. This is the second volume of the book series 'What Moves Artists' by Gropius Bau, Berlin
