The exhibition presents new photographs of contemporary queer nightlife, capturing drag performers, burlesque artists, DJs, and clubgoers with the same analog techniques Meisler used in the 1970s. Moving between stage performances and candid backstage moments, the images celebrate community, self-expression, and the enduring energy of nightlife culture.
