Join us for an evening of provocative discussions about the crisis of gay life after homosexuality with Travis Jeppesen (The Suiciders, Settler’s Landing), Amir Naaman (Die Nektarvögel), Pierre D’Alancaisez The Critic, ArtForum, Compact) and Ran Heilbrunn (Newsweek, American Affairs).
What happened in the transition from inversion to homosexuality, gayness, and queerness? Some gay men fear losing their freedoms, some advocate for sexual restraint, while others, lost in the ever-expanding LGBTQIA+ ‘community,’ continue to make maximalist ideological demands of those outside. These responses mark a fracture in gay life. If there is some essence to homosexual desire, how is it being served by today’s gay culture and queer politics? Has the gay man — homosexual, queer, or inverted — rendered himself obsolete?

Bringing together contributions by eleven leading thinkers, theorists, and critics who examine the consequences of pink-washing history, denial of sexual realities, and the memetic nature of desire, Inversion reclaims homosexuality’s lost depth in an era of profound discontent.
