Angelo Madsen Minax, Shave and a Haircut

 

Chicago Sex Change: 2002-2008, is a collection of nine short videos by Angelo Madsen Minax. Coming from a music and visual art background, these are the first video projects the artist made, in what is now a defined film career. Many of the videos in this collection weren’t intended for release. They are collaborations with Minax’s friends, partners, and lovers. They are playful, erotic, heavy, crass, and together create a punk-documentary tapestry of young queer life in Chicago in the early 2000s.
