BARBARA HAMMER: IN TRIBUTE
A three program (partial) retrospective — many new prints and recent restorations – celebrating this pioneering lesbian feminist filmmaker (1939-2019) who we lost earlier this year
The three programs – with over 20 works to screen — are but a sampling of this maker’s considerable and exuberant achievement, film and video work demonstrating an ongoing activist sensibility that encouraged an experimentation with the formal possibilities of her media and a representationally and politically expansive reach to her subject matter.
