This was a early double Gender Fuck mutual transformation project
of myself gradually becoming ALEX PRIMO for the first time in a such a ritualistic, documented and public way
while at the same time LORENZO,
my project partner
was becoming more and more femminine
until s/he was a total Lorenza,
abandoned to Alex's virile arms.
The project was my idea but it was developed by a performance group
we had created at the time,
the middle 1990's in Florence
composed of a Queer International small group
of gender revolutionaries and artists.
So, there was me,
Lorenzo, a Fiorentine Gay Dancer,
ALex,
a female gender queer choreographer from Canada
and Niki
(on the picture above)
a German queer photographer.
Our group was called
METAMORPHOSIS GROUP
and we tried to do paid gender performances
in the gay and gay-friendly discos
in the Tuscan area around Florence
and also document with photo exhibitions, installations
and happenings
the gender revolution that was certainly coming
but not fast enough for us
and not at all conceivable
for the sleepy Italian society around us.
These are just some pics of my side of the double Gender Fuck transformation
I mentioned,
Lorenzo's pictures are coming.
We had a photo exhibition touring the local gay and gay friendly venues in the area
and at the same time developed and performed as MG
but with only myself and Lorenzo on stage
a performance called
"FREE (THREE) FRUITS".

More to follow.
Miss those innocent and exciting times,
i would have never imagined society would catch up with us
and it become, at least partially,
gender queer herself!
Cheers to Sociatal Queer Progress
and to Freedom and Justice
for all revolutionaries,
Gender ones included!
