Friday October 17 Mediamatic celebrated the opening of the new exhibition Kiki on Steroids!, about transgender and selfrepresentation on the internet. With over 350 visitors it was a big success. Come to Mediamatic and enter the labyrinth to see the photographs of Kael T Block and 'Lupe' by Bogomir Doringer!

Open from Wednesday to Sunday from 12.00 — 20.00 hrs.

With a Lupe Special from 20:00 - 22:00!

During this night make-up artists can transform you into someone of the opposite sex.

Inside the labyrinth that dominates the exhibition space Kael T Block's xxboys, an intimate photoseries about transboys, is presented. The new work Lupe by Bogomir Doringer is also on show. And Women with Beards by Ine Poppe and Jetty Verhoeff from 1997 can be seen again. Youtube videos teach you how to change from a woman into a man and vice versa.

Kiki on Steroids! runs from 18 October 2008 until 4 January 2009, and is open from Wednesday until Sunday from 12:00 - 20:00 hrs.

Lost in the darkness, thank God for the light.
Whiskers? It should have been a moustache!
Andre always wondered how he would look as a female!
Kiss? What's transgender about Kiss?
Bogomir is blinded by the light.
Japanese people with curls? (And too much beer)...
The maze is intense but people don't seem to mind.
Zoro Feigl was wearing beautiful red high heels as well, it's a pity we can't see them here...
Beautiful as a woman and man!
DJ Ivan 'rocked' the evening.
