Bris 69 Queer Dance Party

24 October 2020
7–11pm

Do you flick on your screen and find yourself unable to escape nauseating cis-het antics? More breakfast TV racism? Yet another gender reveal party starting a fire? THAT [points in general direction of US politics]?
Well lucky you for you, Shandy and the queers of Meanjin (Brisbane) have heard you’re in a crisis, and they’re on their way! Like a scantily-clad, glittery Super Nanny, they’re here to put you in that naughty corner you’ve been dying to try out.

Commissioned by the IMA for Making Art Work, Shandy present Bris 69, a livestreamed queer dance party broadcast from IMA Belltower.

Briz 69 is a re-imagining of broadcast television as it could be—with queer people and their voices being celebrated, and taking over and subverting the shows we all know and love/hate. Join us for this deep dive into a world where the medium has been liberated from the shackles of cis-heteronormativity—as we shove the gay agenda down your throats!

The Institute of Modern Art acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land upon which the IMA now stands, the Jagera, Yuggera, Yugarapul, and Turrbal people. We offer our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first artists of this country. In the spirit of allyship, the IMA will continue to work with First Nations people to celebrate, support, and present their immense past, present, and future contribution to artistic practice and cultural expression.
