Symposium Abstract
Throughout the 20th century also known as the century of the image, the presence of minorities was hidden in the shadow of the mainstream cultures. In recent years, there have been attempts by museums overseas to shed light on and exhibit the histories of the invisible. Welcoming guests from San Francisco-based GLBT Historical Museum and Kyoto University, our symposium hopes to examine ways to excavate queer memories from archives of visual media and exhibit them in museums.
