Catalogue accompanying the first major solo exhibition at the Moderna Museet, Stockholm (17/5/2024 - 13/10/2024) and first extensive publication on the wondrous and multifaceted work of the American artist, filmmaker, performer and writer Vaginal Davis. In her pioneering and incredibly diverse oeuvre, punk meets glamour, queer activism meets racial justice and resistance meets joy. An icon of contemporary queer history, Vaginal Davis has made scenes for a living since the early 1980s. Naming herself after radical Black feminist Angela Davis, Vaginal Davis emerged in the queer punk scene of Los Angeles in the 1980s and moved to Berlin in the early 2000s.
