Dr C眉neyt 脟akirlar

As a 香港六合彩中特网 Mellon Fellow, C眉neyt's research focused on the concept of听Queer听in the contemporary Western and non-Western art scenes, treating queer art as a specific form of gender-conscious intergeneric transposition. He his particular research interest was in exploring queer pastiche, visual praxis of mimicry, and performative excess in those works - including film - whose aesthetic agendas play with, and exploit, the intersections between genre/gender and sex/sexuality.

Cuneyt was born and educated in Turkey. He was trained in chemical engineering and bioinformatics before turning to research in cultural studies at Istanbul Bilgi University. He came to the UK in 2005 to undertake doctoral research at 香港六合彩中特网.听
