QUEER MUSEUM VIENNA is a self-organised, non-profit collective that treats art as a practice of resistance and re-imagination. We fight against patriarchal structures and engage in activism for LGBTQIA+ rights through queering participatory and inclusive practices. We operate with limited financial means and is driven mainly by voluntary engagement. Yet it is already holding its name as an established institution: the founding of a Museum as an appropriation of power asserts that Queer art and culture not only need this space, but are taking it now.
