In his latest work, Dries Verhoeven investigates the ins and outs of sexual drug use, a phenomenon that is gaining popularity especially among gay men. Forty years after the start of the gay liberation, we’re entering a ‘narco-sexual revolution’, even though this current liberation is invisible to the outside world. What pushes people to even risk their own lives? How different are they allowed to be?
In de pers
"Dries Verhoeven brengt in zijn performance The NarcoSexuals een knappe ambivalentie aan. Voortdurend confronteert de installatie je vernuftig met je eigen vooroordelen […] Momenten van schoonheid en droefheid wisselen elkaar naadloos af." ★★★★ de Volkskrant
