Mousse #91–Spring 2025: Out Now

Dear readers,
The abuse of power comes as no surprise. Nor does its performance. Amelia Jones asks:

Survey: Lovett/Codagnone
Do Not Become Enamored of Power
“Lovett/Codagnone drove a 1975 red Corvette onto a sidewalk of Broadway. A soundtrack of love songs played loudly in the car so that it could be heard from outside. Inside, the artists, dressed in light S/M gear, kissed for the two-hour duration of the cassette tape.” Lia Gangitano probes the 1990s practice of the duo Lovett/Codagnone, who radically addressed normativity, relationality, and love as a political space.
