About
"Nocturnes - Nightlife Photography by J.Jackie Baier" at Kunstraum Richard Sorge
Berlin art space "Kunstraum Richard Sorge" present "Nocturnes," an exhibition of nightlife photography by noted transsexual photographer and documentary filmmaker J.Jackie Baier.
J.Jackie Baier presents us with a deeply personal and unglamorized view of Berlin's sexual underground, moving through clubs, brothels, bars and streets. Baier, who moved to Berlin in 1993 and officially became a woman in 1997, documents in a wholly unvoyeuristic way the lives of transsexual prostitutes, drag queens and other "misfits".
In what may be the largest solo exhibition of the artist's work to date, all her important work groups will be presented, including Jackie Baier's most notorious, HOUSE OF SHAME / CHANTAL ALL NIGHT LONG, a movie/photography project, spanning ten years of candid reporting on one of Berlin's most original underground icons and her transgressive artistic surroundings, comprising a veritable who's who of international GLTBQ performers, visual artists and Neo-Glam Lo-Fi Electro Sleaze-Rock musicians.
