DESCRIPTION: Through José Esteban Muñoz’s and Saidiya Hartman’s ideas
  of queer ephemera and critical fabulation\, Misha Zakharov’s lecture pe
 rformance An Ass-Shaped Butterfly provides a speculative\, reparative read
 ing of the stage persona of Erik Kurmangaliev. This Kazakh operatic counte
 rtenor had a uniquely high-pitched voice\, and became a fixture of the pos
 t-Soviet 1990s queer scene by starring in Ukrainian theatre maker Roman Vi
 ktyuk’s extravagant Moscow production of David Henry Hwang’s M. Butter
 fly. \n\n Accompanied by a specifically designed libretto\, the lecture wi
 ll be followed by the rare screening of Rustam Khamdamov’s magical and i
 rreverent Vocal Parallels—Kurmangaliev’s single feature film appearanc
 e\, where he demonstrates his extraordinary vocal prowess alongside some o
 f Kazakhstan’s most acclaimed opera singers\, including Roza Dzhamanova 
 and Bibigul Tulegenova. \n\n Curated by Misha Zakharov \n
