On arrival, visitors were given tiny headlamps and were lead along side the labyrinth that dominated the exhibition space. Inside, an intimate photoseries called xxboys by Kael T Block was presented. Kiki On Steroids! dealt with transgenderism and selfrepresentation on the internet. Ine Poppe and Jetty Verhoeff joined Kael T Block with their presentation Women with Beards and Youtube videos showed us how to change sex.
There was music from the 17th and 18th century from Frescobaldi and Monteverdi (among others), especially for Kiki @ N8 with a countertenor, a very high pitched male voice. The Barberini Ensemble consisted of:
Francine Vis - mezzosoprano
Jean-Sébastien Beauvais - countertenor
Francesca Thompson - recorder
Anja Engelberg - viola da gamba
Maximilian Ehrhardt - arpa doppia
Plus the visitors had a chance to get a man / woman make over by the make up artists of House of Orange.
