Disco I'm Coming Out
Published by Éditions de La Martinière
in collaboration with the Philharmonie de Paris
Author: Patrick Thévenin
The exhibition catalogue Disco I’m Coming Out traces the utopian and celebratory phenomenon of disco. As a descendant of African-American music, born in New York’s Black and gay club scenes, disco remains inseparable from its social and activist context. From queer culture to feminism, from the rise of the DJ to the birth of club culture, from safe spaces to questions of gender, its legacy continues to resonate with the issues shaping contemporary society.

The exhibition Disco I’m Coming Out takes place at the Philharmonie de Paris, from February 14 to August 17, 2025.
