Vogue’ology contains seemingly incompatible elements: aesthetic experience and political activism; community events and forensic research; public manifestations and private workshops. As part of the Vera List Center’s 2009–2011 focus theme, Speculating on Change, Vogue-ology comprised an exhibition accompanied by a series of public programs. The exhibition was a joint project between the Ballroom Archive & Oral History Project and the sound art collective Ultra-red.
