Beschreibung

Essay from the year 2022 in the subject Cultural Studies - GLBT / LGBTIQ, grade: 17,0, University of Luxembourg, language: English, abstract: This essay gives an overview of the impact of RuPaul on the art of the drag. Drag has always been an art form of the LGBTQ+ community. Nevertheless, the roots of the artwork arose in the 17th century during the Shakespearian period as male actors portrayed female characters in the theatre which implies that they also wore female clothes and make-up. Furthermore, drag shows had their origin during that period as well which emphasizes that this art form was always part of the society. However, since the 18th century drag became an art which fights for the equality of the LGBTQ+ community. During the 1920s Julian Eltinge became the first famous American drag artist with their variety show and the American society was tolerant towards their queer art. However, after the Second World War, and the sex crime fears in 1930, drag acts were frowned upon. Nevertheless, in 1970 drag emerged with the beginning of drag balls being organized. During those runway shows, experienced drag queens got the opportunity to take up upcoming drag artists and potentially give them a home which made them become drag mothers as well as the head of their own House.
