AgeOfThe: Athenian

AgeOfThe: Athenian was a takeover of the Henry Moore Institute by Leeds based drag collective AgeOfThe. which I worked on as producer and host.

To mark the closing of Edward Allington’s Things Unsaid AgeOfThe. presented a world of athenian delights and live art experiences. LadyHD, China, Luca, Donna The Domme From Doncaster and myself took audiences on a journey through our queer interpretations of the work of Edward Allington, using drag as a lens to explore ideas of mass production, perfect forms and historical narratives.


Each performance will drew on ideas and theories Allington was exploring in his own works Fruits of Oblivion, Heraclitus DXLIXA, Architectural Fragment (Third Column) and Victory Boxed. For Age Of The Athenian artists from AgeOfThe. flirt with the notions of classicism - a thing which has been used in the west as a status symbol throughout our history, a phenomenon that Allington himself took inspiration from - to further play with the validity of art, a thing which drag (or indeed any art about queerness or transness), are rarely ever seen as.

A panel discussion, with the artists and hosted by me, followed the performances with the performers talking about their work in relation to Allington’s as well as drag, queerness, transness, the art of camp and the difference between performing in queer spaces and a white cube gallery space.
