Summary:
"
Lesbian
feminist
histories can have a haunting effect on the present. This book explores the making and experience of
Killjoy
's
Kastle
, an immersive walk-through installation and performance artwork (by Allyson Mitchell and Deirdre Logue). Inspired by Evangelical Christian hell houses of the past, the exhibition has been staged in three cities so far--Toronto, London, and Los Angeles--engaging thousands in interactive encounters with the spirits that haunt
feminist
and queer history. Where traditional hell houses set out to scare and convert,
Killjoy
's
Kastle
cheekily aims to provoke and pervert.
Inside
Killjoy
's
Kastle
extends and reflects on the theoretical and political legacies of the installation in chapters by queer and
feminist
scholars and in vignettes by participating artists. The many colourful photos in the book also bring the
Kastle
to life, offering an important visual context."--Jacket.
