IT’S NOT HOMOSEXUAL JUST THE HOMOPHILIC BUT ALSO THE ONE BLINDED BY THE LOST PHALLUS

It's not homosexual just the homophilic but also the one blinded by the lost phallus, takes it title from a previously unknown 1976 draft for a short film that directors of the film discovered in the archives of the spanish prolific writer, anthropologist and LGBT activist Alberto Cardín, who died of AIDS-related illness in Barcelona in 1992. The exuberant production of Cardín’s loose screenplay by Equipo Palomar is an erratic and erotic exploration of narcissism, blasphemy, miscegenation, transvestism, the murder of Pier Paolo Pasolini and the Schreber case.

Director Biography - Equipo Palomar

Comprising queer artists Mariokissme and R. Marcos Mota, Equipo Palomar is a project with its own work- space, El Palomar, located in the neighbourhood of Poble Sec (Barcelona), from which hidden history is reviewed in relation to identity and gender. El Palomar is a space, a working context, a political stance and an institutional rethink. It is shaped by artists, but they are also programmers, act as curators and generate critical discourses. This queer based laboratory sets its own pace, combining a multitude of flexible identities in order to change the ways of working with art. Desire is a driving force to rethink everything in El Palomar.

Director Statement

El Palomar is above all a place of political visibility, research, recovery, meeting, exhibition and dialogue; a not-for-profit project, with no timetable and at the margins of the market that differentiates itself from a purely gallery space. It functions as an enclave of discourse, subjects and practices that have difficulty in penetrating the official contemporary artistic arena. We have been working on infecting the dominant post-conceptual macho aesthetic with other discourses by generating spaces for meeting and exchange; creating a programme based on multi-vocal research and polyphonic incorporation from working on the margins (from the overground).
