Rehangs at art museums are rare. The last one at Tate Britain was in 2012. Whilst galleries will make small changes to their on-display collections, these are small, only happen every few months and usually happen for specific reasons (such as an item going on loan to another gallery).But each rehang gives an art gallery to make a statement on what its mission as an institution is. A statement that visitors will likely see for ten or more years. So it's a big deal that Tate Britain and the National Gallery both increased the amount of LGBTQIA+ representation in their recent rehangs. This week's producer, Mills Dyer explores some key Trans+ history they reveal, with guests:<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/apigeon" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Abi Penton</a> – A Tate tour guide and expert on Gluck</li><li><a href="https://x.com/QueeringCulture" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Cas Bradbeer</a> - A queer historian and V&A Tour guide</li><li><a href="https://www.history.ox.ac.uk/people/professor-matt-cook" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Prof Matt Cook</a> – Professor of Queer History at Oxford University</li></ul>View the art discussed in today's show:<ul><li><a href="https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/gluck-floras-cloak-t15334" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Flora’s Cloak c.1923, Gluck</a></li><li><a href="https://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portrait/mw217942/Chevalier-dEon" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Chevalier d'Eon by Thomas Stewart, after Jean-Laurent Mosnier</a></li><li><a href="https://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/person/mp60737/charles-genevieve-louis-auguste-andre-timothee-deon-de-beaumont" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Prints of Chevalier d’Eon at the National Portrait Gallery</a></li></ul>Read more stories from Trans+ History Week:<ul><li><a href="https://www.wearequeeraf.com/transhistoryweek/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.wearequeeraf.com/transhistoryweek/</a></li></ul>Here is the article we recommended:<ul><li><a href="https://www.wearequeeraf.com/the-jewish-transgender-couple-who-fell-in-love-and-escaped-the-nazis/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.wearequeeraf.com/the-jewish-transgender-couple-who-fell-in-love-and-escaped-the-nazis/</a></li></ul>Watch the Transcending Words poetry night:<ul><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tmbn900ekPM" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tmbn900ekPM </a></li></ul>Plus, be sure to sign up for our newsletter to understand the LGBTQIA+ news every Saturday:<ul><li><a href="https://www.wearequeeraf.com/subscribe/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.wearequeeraf.com/subscribe/</a></li></ul>This episode is made possible with the support of Publicis Groupe UK.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
