Giuseppe campuzano biography
•
Since 2003, Campuzano has been working on the 'Transvestite Museum' project, an exploration of the realities of transvestism, a staging of its aesthetics, and a confrontation between its forms of knowledge and official discourses. This performance explored a transvestite body that performs in order to persist in the face of a denied discourse: ritual turned into spectacle, a queer body whose performance deconstructs and assembles its topics and differences as strategy.

También cuestionó la figura del travesti blanco y occidental de la teoría queeranglosajona, reivindicando la impureza de los rastros cuir del sur.
