LIVING IN MIRRORS: the life that belongs to me
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at McEvoy Foundation for the Arts
(see times)
Explore the moving power of portraiture and feminism in LIVING IN MIRRORS: the life that belongs to me, a selection of short films originally shot on analog film by women artists. The screening at McEvoy Foundation for the Arts includes a rare 16mm presentation of Permutations (1976) by Theresa Hak Kyung Cha. Tickets, on sale now, are $7-10.
Filmmakers like Cha, Julie Dash, and Valie Export-whose 1966 poem Gedichte informs this program's title-use the moving image to communicate deeply personal messages to the public. Illustrating the endless possibilities of film and the moving image, the artists envision the screen as fertile ground for examination, construction, and projection of the self. LIVING IN MIRRORS is guest curated by curator and filmmaker Gina Basso and San Francisco Cinematheque director Steve Polta and co-presented by McEvoy Arts and SF Cinematheque.
LIVING IN MIRRORS is presented in conjunction with Image Gardeners, an exhibition at McEvoy Arts that features eight decades of portrait photography by women and non-binary artists who challenge dominant conventions of representation. In the Screening Room, Basso guest curates seen only, heard only through someone else's description, a related program of experimental short films that offer fresh visions of moving image portraiture and nonfiction explorations of community. Admission to McEvoy Arts is free.
$7-10.
