Abstract:

Photocopied fliers promoting after hours gay and lesbian dance venue Klub Dekadence. Some fliers are illustrated with recycled imagery but most feature original artwork of local photographers and depict the male go-go dancers of the club, often posing nude or in costumes reflecting the sexually provocative theatricality of their performances (e.g. BSDM, leather, drag, modern primitive, etc.). Some fliers show evidence of having been posted.
