For the second chapter of BASTARDS Julian-Jakob Kneer presents monochrome printed silver mirrors with custom-made galvanized frames. By sifting through themes of morality and the narcissistic self, Kneer’s “movie posters” become contemporary zeitgeist artifacts that confront our supposed socio-cultural binaries of right and wrong, beautiful and ugly, and sickness and health. Kneer breaks them down into their constituent parts, and releases them for recasting in a value-free queer space.

With an exhibition text by Patrick McGraw.

A wise girl knows her limits, a smart girl knows that she has none. Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. If I’d observed all the rules, I’d never have gotten anywhere.

— MARILYN MONROE
