The Outrageous Art of Transgender Punk Rock Star Jayne County

Jayne-County-

“An exhibition at Participant Inc. gathers the sometimes fantastical, sometimes caustic visual art of the punk icon… It is almost impossible to encapsulate the brilliant career of rock star Jayne County. As punk rock’s first openly transgender performer, she was an inspiration for everyone from Andy Warhol to David Bowie, but never quite got credit for her widespread influence… There is a display of photographs, ephemera, and album covers spanning the breadth of County’s career as a punk performer.”
