It features artists across several generations working in a variety of mediums to contextualise and converse with these discourses.&nbsp;<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The exhibition is about the absence of bodies, the abstraction of the body, and the tools and language we use to maintain or describe our bodies\u2014costuming, staging, masks, layering, clothing. It questions the normative frameworks that queer and functionally diverse people are subjected to. The human body is, paradoxically, both absent and present within the exhibition.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Initiated by the artist Philipp Gufler, <em>Substitutes<\/em> brings together works of Lorenza B\u00f6ttner, Johanna Gonschorek, Elis\u00e0r von Kupffer, Rabe perplexum, Louwrien Wijers, Johannes B\u00fcttner, and Bruno Zhu. Philipp Gufler will show a new work titled <em>Body\/Text<\/em>: a large-scale silk screen printed textile piece that draws inspiration from Elis\u00e0r von Kupffer&#8217;s panorama painting <em>Klarwelt der Seligen<\/em> (Clear World of the Blissful). By connecting contemporary discussions to historical perspectives, the exhibition aims to create a \u2018living archive\u2019. Drawing together artistic positions from then and now, the exhibition traces queer lives and networks from the past to our present.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exhibition photography by Pieter Kers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/w139.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Zine-substitutes-V4.pdf\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/w139.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Zine-substitutes-V4.pdf\">Find the PDF version of the exhibition handout here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Colophon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Visual Identity: Jacob Hoving<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>W139 team: Tomas Adolfs, Nadia Benchagra, Dana Claasen, Levi van Gelder, Dil Ghale, Kirsty McIntosh, Sam Geer van der Klugt, Margarita Osipian, Claudio Ritfeld, Annette Wolfsberger<br><br>Additional support: Nor Akelei, Andre Avelas, Charlotte Beeck, Martijn van der Blom, Franziska M\u00fcller Schmidt<br><br>Special thanks to the artists of the exhibition, Szymon Adamczak, Alex Anders\/Geier, Johanna d\u2019Armagnac, Claudio Berger, J\u00f6rn B\u00f6tnagel, Irene B\u00f6ttner, Elfe Brandenburger, Wilfred van Buuren, Anke B\u00fcttner, Erg\u00fcl Cengiz, Hans D.
