Riassunto

"Powered by the subversive energies of the new queer politics this wide-ranging and challenging collection brings together the writers and essays that have staked out a new and distinctive lesbian and gay perspective on film, video and representation. A rich feast of a book and essential reading for cultural studies"---Stuart Hall

Queer-Looks adds an important new volume to the growing body of literature on gay and lesbian media Affording refreshing perspectives from new and established writers film-and video-makers, Queer Looks provides challenging commentary, enlightened dialogue, and essential history across a global spectrum---Ira Silverberg

Queer Looks brings together, for the first time critical reflections on and explorations of the phenomenal developments in recent gay and lesbian independent film and video Artists activists, and critics/theorists stake out exciting new sites to think and rethink how `queer looks make a difference---and the difference in question encompasses the complex and sometimes contra-dictory dynamics of sexuality in relation to race, gender, and nation. This book serves both as a wonderful introduction to lesbian/gay media, and as an indispensible resource for specialists---Judith Mayne
