Hatshepsut the Drag Queen
<p><em>Bilingual in English and Arabic</em></p> <p><em>Hatshepsut the Drag Queen</em> explores the pitfalls and benefits of non-geographic framing in exhibition-making. Based on Johnson’s own experience as a Middle East North Africa curator at the National Museum of World Cultures in the Netherlands, the essay deconstructs thematic, region-specific exhibitions whilst seeking to expand terms of art viewership by learning from platforms such as the Sharjah Biennial.</p>
