In the polyphonic exhibition “A cappella”, Fanny Adriana Dunning, Maria Esteves, Nolan Lucidi, and Julie / Julot Wuhrmann gather around narratives and inquiries into various queer artistic lineages. Reclaiming aspects of the history of art via narratives and images, often tinted with a touch of delicate irony, the exhibition revolves around fictional or potential queer histories, rooted in archives and current social issues.

Beyond lesbian territories and the idyllic alcove of cursed lovers, a television is emitting strange waves and a washing machine may be spinning the wrong way; or maybe it’s history in general, written mainly by a cis-heterosexual society, whose queer parts have been erased. Between bucolic stagings and cyborg installations, Fanny Adriana Dunning, Maria Esteves, Nolan Lucidi, and Julie / Julot Wuhrmann aspire to maliciously give shape and life to marginalized narratives.

Fanny Adriana Dunning is an artist born in 1999, who lives between the Nyon region and Basel.

Her work was published in Sissinghurst issue #2 Spring 2024, a magazine edited by Claire FitzGerald and Denis Savary.
