Gegen >< Meat↴
6-15 September 2018 | Short Theater Festival 2018
︎ Concept
“GEGEN is made to get people off. In order to do this, bodies must not only be highly sexualized, but objectified, fetishized, eroticized and made to accommodate very particular individual kinks. Political correctness has become an intellectual prison within which an extremely limited dialogue can take place, and in fact where monologues and diatribes are usually the discursive practice. Embracing the need to objectify and be objectified, to fetishize and be fetishized, to play the willing victim as well as the victimizer, opens up a mine field that will be difficult to traverse, but it is a more intellectually provocative and honest terrain from which to understand who we are as complex sexual beings.”*. For this reason “becoming meat” appears to be the best relational way and a tribute to the location of the old roman Slaughterhouse .
* RE-adapted from the essay “Ssspread.com. The Hot Bods of Queer Porn” , Barbara Degenevieve.
