Albrecht Dürer: Renaissance Queer?
Kitty Walsh

Fresh from her successful debut at the Edinburgh Fringe with Albrecht Dürer: Renaissance Dude, local art historian and comedian Kitty Walsh will be joining us in the RUMPUS ROOM LGBTQ+ Space at Peckham Festival 2017!
Kitty will be delivering a talk on Albrecht Dürer, the renaissance era’s most progressive artist. Kitty will focus upon his sexuality and gender politics, exploring sexual ambiguity and the use of homo-eroticism in his work – ideas which were overlooked by future generations. Expect men’s saunas, muscular physiques and the world’s first dick pic in this light-hearted romp through the life and works of the German Renaissance’s most iconic artist!
Part of the Rumpus ROOM LGBTQ+ SPACE event.
