Lesbian ConneXion/s

Lesbian ConneXion/s is
the first large-scale photo-exhibition in Europe on the theme of lesbian
visibility. Sixty photographers from fifteen countries were invited to make
images that reveal lesbian lives and lifestyle. Their different social,
cultural, political or ethnic background provide a multitude of perspectives on
lesbian reality/ies. Lesbian ConneXion/s wants to break stereotypes and
hopes to contribute to a change of mentality. Alongside the exhibition, the
organisers direct photographer's workshops under the motto They Will
Remember Us.
Lesbian ConneXion/s’ was shown for the first time in Amsterdam during
the Gay and Lesbian Games in 1998, and was seen by over four thousand visitors.
Last year the City of Women invited the initiators and organisers of
Lesbian ConneXion/s to Ljubljana to introduce their travelling
exhibition-project. Besides their introduction, they held a photography
workshop.
As announced at that time, the City of Women 2000 presents the actual
international exhibition.
