In western democracies the queer political imagination is on its deathbed. Contemporary gay and lesbian politics voraciously seeks mere inclusion in the way things already are, leaving little time or space to imagine ourselves in another, more fantastic queer time and place. Reviving the Queer Political Imagination maps Conrad’s work over the last two years as an artist, academic and agitator seeking to create the time and space to think and act critically with visions of ever multiplying queer utopias always set in our sites, on the horizon. Working through many mediums and accessing numerous theoretical, political and affective frameworks, this text will take you on a passionate journey through Conrad’s most intimate inner workings and innately public cultural work. Longing for anything less than the queerest of utopic futures will be the final nail in the coffin of the queer political imagination.
