You\u2019ve never seen the lonely me at all<\/em> frames Central and Eastern European queer affects within a search for kinship. The exhibition and associated events showcase personal references to an absent history, to the way it affects and shapes our bodies, to finding ways of archiving and preserving specific experiences and kinship when confronting the loom of troubled times. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What existed before me in the place of my birth? I remember the face of one queer woman that comes from my early childhood. A butch person, I would call her or them, today. She was a friend of my mother and probably loved her in secret, unrequitedly. Hard to tell, in those days, but Claudia really did not look like the rest. Stood out in pantsuits, hair cut and slick, a beauty beyond what one could easily find in the streets in those days. She killed herself of too much drinking, my mother told me, one or two years after we left the large provincial town and moved to the capital city. She was left behind to roam alone the streets without my laughter.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
What little history I can find in my bones and in the shape of my body is filled with the glow and the melodrama of loneliness, tinged with some Eastern European mystique. I stand alone, while not lonely, looking from within my narrative for the narratives of the women preceding me. Inventing some sort of herstory from the mechanics of the Cold War and the fleeting fashions of time. Something in my body is looking for references and similarities in all four cardinal points. My gaze is piercing, my body has passed through storms and changes, yet the only bit of history that I remember as being mine is that of Claudia\u2019s smile. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
You\u2019ve never seen the lonely me at all<\/em> is built from this: from a personal search which grows its own body, from a need to dwell in the presence of persons who evoke, symbolize or represent stories in which I identify references to mine: references of place, of flesh or of wording. Similarities of moving, and looking for the new in someone else\u2019s structures. Being alone, still, inside the overarching narratives of someone else\u2019s past. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Pauline Boudry and Renate Lorenz\u2019s Silent<\/em> is the work that links You\u2019ve never seen the lonely me at all<\/em> to the rest of the world: the exhibition begins by telling a story of women migrating, of their presence in the new places of their choice (or were they?), having mainstream history as a backdrop, becoming performative monuments in places of turmoil. Remembering, reenactment and body presence are the main topics behind Anna Dau\u010d\u00edkov\u00e1\u2019s 2011 video Portrait of a Woman with Institution – portrait of Muda Mathis and Sus Zvick with Zweisamkeit<\/em>. Dau\u010d\u00edkov\u00e1 is looking with emotion at two fundamental figures for contemporary performance art, discussing the institution of togetherness. Mi Kafchin\u2019s drawings and installation offer glimpses of a complex journey into transition, solitude, loosing and searching for one\u2019s place, with twists of mysticism and irony. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
In addition, the film Secret Lives<\/em>, directed by M\u00e1ria Tak\u00e1cs from interviews conducted together with writer and activist Anna Borgos, will be available for viewing in the gallery space, referencing the effort to preserve history and kinship.<\/span><\/div>\n
