Vienna-based, poet JG Danso, discusses Black queer liberation and how her work reached the family of Marsha P. Johnson, a Black trans pioneer and initiator of the 1969 Stonewall Riots. Danso’s debut exhibit “Inaugerations” features her poems with works from local and international LGBTQ+ artists, such as Afro-Brazilian queer artist, Ani Ganzala, to Vienna LGBTQ+ design studio, La Vienísima.
Danso’s exhibit “Inaugurations” will run this month at the Villa Vida Café with performances on August 22nd, 2020 at 19:00 at the Türkis Rosa Lila Villa, one of Vienna’s oldest LGBTQA+ community centers. The sale of each poster supports queer creative work and support the Villa Vida Café. Danso’s work can also be found online on Facebook and Instagram @ JGDanso.
