Queer Mode is a bold, interdisciplinary performance event that brings fashion, movement, poetry, and queer presence into dialogue with classical art spaces. Conceived and produced by Denise Van De Cruze, Queer Mode invites audiences to reimagine the runway as a site of transformation—where bodies become living art and self-expression takes center stage. Presented in collaboration with the Belvedere Museum during Vienna Pride, this immersive experience blurs the lines between performance, exhibition, and celebration.

During Pride Month in June, events take place around the world to honor those who lost their lives fighting for the rights of queer people, and to make visible the ongoing commitment against homophobia and for a diverse society. Raising the rainbow flag on public institutions and buildings is a sign of broad solidarity with the queer community and its demands. More info
