 CRIP­QUEER SEMINAR (MANAGEMENT AND CURATORIAL WORK)

﴾Extra and Inter nice work﴿

Alliances between understood as abject subject, according to the

parameters of capitalist normality, have multiplied in recent years. If
feminist‐queer movements address the sex / gender / desire, critical
approach to studies of functional and neurological diversity contri‐
butes crip diversity movement, generates a common framework for
questioning the bodies built as standard and / or standardizable.

The vulnerability of these bodies is presented as a place from

which to analyze multiple issues such as diversity, sexuality, disease,
care and affection, in the search for a crip‐queer alternative for a wor‐
thwhile life be lived.

This seminar, organized by the research group Somateca, propo‐

ses to create a space inside and outside the museum institution, for
sharing experiences and practices to generate dissidents ethics and
politics of interdependence, sustainability and solidarity, in margins of
neoliberal and neocolonial, ableistic heteropatriarchy.
