On display as part of "Art, Protest, & the Archive" is this magazine. An acronym for the Unitary Italian Revolutionary Homosexual Front, it is no accident that "fuori" is also the Italian word for outside. Angelo Pezzana, the movement’s founder, had initially tried to make common cause with Marxists, but he soon broke away. “Today we refuse those who speak for us,” he declared in the first issue of FUORI! (1972).
“For the first time, homosexuals speak to other homosexuals. Openly, with pride, they declare themselves to be such. For the first time the homosexual enters the scene as a protagonist, directs his own story in the first person.” Like Italian feminists, however, Pezzana led the movement into alliance with the Radical Party in 1976, and a year later FUORI!, too, had a role on stage in the Italian ’77.
