Christine and the Queens on queerness and enlightened death

- ‘Why am I happy to say yes to curating Meltdown? …because we can create the world we would like to live in.’
Against a backdrop of footage from Christine and the Queens’ two sold-out Royal Festival Hall shows, Red talks about his curation of the 28th Meltdown festival.
In doing so he draws particular attention to the repetitive nature of conversations around queerness. He expresses his frustration that rather than moving on and asking what queerness can be, and what it can open up in terms of human experience for everyone, the conversation around queerness is instead preoccupied with the same question. ‘It’s always about ‘do we have the right to be here?’ We shouldn't have to ask this question any more.’
The artist also explains how his role as curator offered him the opportunity to create and re-establish a space open to everyone. ‘The act of curating can be so wonderful, because you can install a landscape and an ethos.’
And he reflects on his own journey as an artist and performer, his need to be challenged in what he does, and wanting to remain a revolutionary in a society which is all too keen to put people in boxes.

Thank you Red for your shows, your words and love.
Thank you Southbank Centre for this festival.

his words accurately describe the ideas, they're poetic as well. I'm all over his narrative, this is truly healing for me as a queer person.
A passionate, inspiring, truly multi-faceted artist. Chris/Red is second to none nowadays.
He is such an artist. The words, art, performances, music. All gold 🙌
Such an intelligent, fascinating, beautiful human being, and with so much talent, there are no limit to the superlatives about Christine, she is that special, a true force of nature 💜🙏🏴

What is the song in the background?

'Slowly dissolving the boundaries of patriarchy'. What does that mean?
Some feminist Mumbo jumbo. They think the world is against them so they have to be super try hardy
It all started with the 3rd Century Crisis of the Roman Empire... Before...
Octavius Augustus Cesar was preaty much into patriarchy....
You can read on roman coins and Ara Pacis
"I fking ❤ PATRIARCHY OCT AUG CAESAR Cons VIII".
Then came the cocaïne socialists and everything is fucked up beyoud human recognition.
maybe open your mind and find out.
It means people are able to express themselves authentically instead of only in ways deemed culturally appropriate for their birth-assigned gender.
Heureusement qu'il existe des gens comme lui dans le monde de l'art et surtout de la chanson où les artistes sont tous de plus en plus lisses...
J'espère que vous allez emmener vos enfants voir cette dame pour leurs montrer ce qu'est l'art à vos yeux ((si oui avez des enfants bien sûr))
@@skill8958 Dans un monde tel qu'il est aujourd'hui, il est fort égoïste que de vouloir des enfants... Ceci étant si j'en avais je les y emmènerai que s'ils souhaitent y aller. Mais je vois pas le rapport avec les enfants et lui ? 🤔
@@arnaudponcin3027 vous n'aurez jamais d'enfants, vous n'en voulez pas, mais vous savez que si vous en aviez les faire découvrir cette artiste complètement paumé à la recherche de ses 1001 identités qui aime la fumette et chante quasi entièrement à poil serai bien... hé bé
@@skill8958 Bah oui, il n'y a pas besoin d'avoir des enfants pour savoir comment les éduquer ^^ Ce qui est bon pour eux et ce qui ne l'est pas. Y'en a tant qui en font et qui ne savent pas faire 😉
@@arnaudponcin3027 ce que vous dites n'a aucun sens, merci de me faire rigoler cher monsieur, en gros savoir faire d'avance une chose que vous ne ferez jamais... ((en tous cas vous êtes libre de penser c'que vous voulez, et je vous remercie de ne pas faire d'enfants finalement))
Pour être dissociée....elle l'est vraiment. .....se mettre à poil sur scène, c'est indécent et ça n'apporte rien au spectacle...en fait la scène c'est sa thérapie
I swear, some of you French people don't appreciate the sweet genius in your midst and it's so sad...
@@TonyHawkTuah ...it's called aging and he is still gorgeous, what are you talking about?
What is it like living in an echo chamber?
I don’t know - you tell me!
@@catherinespark i wouldnt know , i hang out with people who have different thoughts and opinions lol
Neither this artist nor I have been in an echo chamber. Just because you don’t agree with someone doesn’t mean they exist in one. Anyway, I recognise that you’re simply making your own feelings known in a passive aggressive rhetorical way. You’re entitled to your opinion.
@@catherinespark You guys are best pals .
Thanks! :)
Non mais elle tellement perchée. Il se la raconte à mort.
Cette dame adore la fumette, elle l'a dit elle-même ((et pas que je pense)) vous comprennez d'avantage son univers à présent
Weird
And though you didn’t say it wasn’t, I am still putting it up beside your comment: weird is fine!
What a load of cobblers 😂
I take it you’ve moved on to things more palatable to you, since you personally didn’t like it?
The music seems good but her interview is a bunch of word salad.
Just because *you* don't understand something doesn't make it meaningless.
@@0bserver44 still word salad
And your reply is just sounds. All you’ve done is mindlessly repeat your perspective - not accept the invite engage in discussion. You commented just for the thrill of hearing your own voice and because you could put it there where others would hear it. Not because you wanted to offer anything valuable or edifying. Nobody thinks that’s a good look in other people. Many like the look of themselves.
Christine and the gweens? Why not?
Fais ton job, le reste ne regarde que toi.
We dont care about your own way, your sexualite
If you don’t care I take it you’ve moved on? :)
@@catherinesparkit's enough about this wokisme.
I prefer to hear the singers what ever her or his sexualite 😮
So just go and listen to the music then. Stop irritating yourself with this video!
c'est bien de rester humble et de ne pas intellectualiser. Christine se prend très au sérieux, c'est mignon et ridicule à la fois
Ta définitivement pété un cable!
Tu te prends pour qui?
Bonjour madame, je vous souhaite bon courage pour votre carrière madame, au revoir madame 👋
