Revealing selves: transgender portraits from Argentina
"Argentina was the first nation in Latin America to legalize same-sex marriage. It also passed legislation making it one of the most advanced countries worldwide in terms of transgender rights—the culmination of a long battle fought by LGBTQ support groups. Award-winning photographer Kike Arnal collaborates with individuals in Argentinian transgender communities, living side by side with them and documenting their day-to-day lives in a series of strikingly intimate color and black-and-white images. Among them are a former sex worker who is now a recognized leader of the Buenos Aires trans community, a single trans mother of three teenage girls whose partner had fallen victim to drug abuse, and the residents of the Hotel Gondolin, a small, derelict family hotel now inhabited by a few dozen trans women. Despite the progress, the situation in Argentina is far from perfect. Trans people are still discriminated against and subject to verbal violence, physical assault, and police abuse. Of interest to LGBTQ activists and photography enthusiasts alike, Revealing Selves is both a celebration of the trans community in Argentina and a clear-eyed examination of what remains to be done in the struggle for trans rights." -- publisher's website

Grenzen der Überschreitung: Kontroversen um Transkultur, Transgender und Transspecies
In: Edition Kulturwissenschaft Band 97
Transgender, Transkulturalität, Transnationalität - Konzepte des Trans erleben eine politische und wissenschaftliche Konjunktur. In ihnen geht die Forderung nach einer Öffnung von soziokulturellen Identitäten auf. Doch die fluide gewordenen Grenzen von nationalen, sozialen und körperlichen Räumen drohen sich in Traditionen und Neorassismen erneut zu verfestigen: So werden Werte der bürgerlichen Kleinfamilie ebenso wie rechtspopulistische Positionen nicht nur immer wieder thematisiert, sondern in verschiedenen medialen und sozialen Kanälen reproduziert. Die Beiträge des Bandes fragen daher: Durch welche Prozesse essentialisieren sich Transkonzepte - und an welchen normativen Grenzen zerbrechen sie?
