The Art Collection Schlichtner presents at Parallel Vienna 2022 the artistic practice of various artists who deal with opportunities and difficulties, stereotypes and prejudices regarding binary and non-binary gender roles.
Due to the insistence of many societies and regimes on a binary gender order and repeated heteronormative practices, art offers the possibility to question the colonial techno-pharmaceutical patriarchy in the sense of Paul B. Preciadio.
In order to enable love, relations, to eventually achieve equality, self-discovery and socialization, and to fight for human rights, this dispositive is taken from the private to the public creating a heterotopia.
