From Toilets to Tablets: Cruising Through Time
17:00 Admission free. In English.
Cinema Queer in collaboration with ArkDes proudly presents an evening in the footpaths of cruising with a curated selection of short films in the garden on Skeppsholmen, a panel discussion addressing cruising as an act of resistance, and guided tour with James Taylor-Foster of the exhibition Cruising Pavilion: Architecture, Gay Sex and Cruising Culture in Boxen at ArkDes.
Since the dawn of time, queers have hooked up for sex in all corners of society: in parks, alleys, on beaches and toilets, in clubs and in basements. With two short film programmes Cinema Queer makes space for some of these stories – some true, and some fiction. In From Toilets to Tablets: Cruising Through Time we present the raunchy, the tender, the political, the naked, the power and the resistance that is inherent in cruising.
Program

ACCEPTERA – a Swedish manifesto?
18:00 Aula at ArkDes. Free entry. In English.
Acceptera (”Accept”), the book from 1931 that is regarded as the manifesto and “call to arms” of Swedish functionalism, has recently been published in a German edition, translated and annotated by the architectural historian Atli Seelow. We have assembled a panel of experts to discuss how Acceptera relates to the Bauhaus and German intellectual culture of the early 20th century.
Participants
Helena Kåberg, PhD and curator at Nationalmuseum, is one of the editors of the English translation of Acceptera, published in Modern Swedish Design: Three Founding Texts (The Museum of Modern Art, New York, 2008).
Atli Magnus Seelow, Dr.-Ing., architect and architectural historian, docent at Chalmers and the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg, has annotated and translated Acceptera to German – Akzeptiere. Das Buch und seine Geschichte (FAU University Press, Erlangen, 2018).
Sven-Olov Wallenstein, professor of philosophy at Södertörn University and co-author with Helena Mattsson of the book 1930/31 Den svenska modernismen vid vägskälet (“1930/31 Swedish Modernism at the Crossroads,” Axl Books, Stockholm, 2009), about the construction and uniqueness of Swedish modernism.
