Own a piece of the groundbreaking work Babershop: The Art of Queer Failure by residency alumni, Ace Lehner. A multimedia installation and performance work, Lehner’s Barbershop is a multimedia installation and performance work that engages queerness, failure, and masculinity masquerading as haircuts, all in a space modeled on the iconic barbershop. About this work, Lehner writes,

"Failure has been part of queerness since the terms' reclamation in the 1980s. Queerness as identity and method fails to perform in ways that mainstream culture encourages. Queers fail to perform normatively when it comes to romantic partners, sexualities, gender identities, family structures, aesthetics, world making, and much more. Queer and queerness fail on purpose to be normative and instead throw norms, essentialism, and givens into question. Queers and queerness fail on purpose as a means of creating other possibilities."
