On Our Backs: An Archive / Show & Tell

Sunday 8th of July, 3pm, The Cube Space, Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art (approx. 60mins), FREE

We, Co-Curators / Artists Janina Sabaliauskaite and Jade Sweeting will facilitate a presentation and discussion about our 2017 exhibition On Our Backs: An Archive featuring Phyllis Christopher.

We encourage guests to get involved, bring and share an image / book / magazine / object, etc. in relation to On Our Backs or lesbian feminist erotica and join the conversation about lesbian visibility.

On Our Backs was the first women-run erotica magazine and the first magazine to feature lesbian erotica for a lesbian audience in the United States. It ran from 1984 to 2006.

Event is programmed by Gem Andrews.
