Rootless Cosmopolitans, dir. Ruth Novaczek, UK 1998, 13 min.
Experimental Film and Punk: Feminist Audio Visual Culture of the 1970s and 1980s, a new book by artist Professor Rachel Garfield, aims to analyze and situate the aesthetic and intellectual ambition of a range of women filmmakers operating during the 1970s and 1980s through the lens and legacy of punk. In Garfield’s writing she traces the emergence of a female subjectivity as a vital and valid form of practice and explores specific filmmaking approaches such as DIY, disintegration and hysteria.
This live music and film event includes screenings of works featured in the book by Vivienne Dick, Abigail Child, Betzy Bromberg Tessa Hughes Freeland, Ruth Novaczek and Sandra Lahire, with live performances from bands Shade Ray and Es and a DJ set from Gabi.
