SUMMARY:Voice\, Gender\, Character: Tessitura Film Screening and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of the short film\, Tessitura. After the screening\, we’ll be joined by co-directors\, Lydia Cornett and Brit Fryer\, for a Q&A moderated by Rebekah Peeples\, Deputy Dean of the College and author of “Unchanged Trebles.” \nTessitura explores how contemporary opera singers navigate the traditional vocal categories of their art form\, interweaving their personal stories with historical context. Central to this exploration is musicologist Dr. Naomi André\, who provides context about the legacy of castrati and trouser roles – grounding the film in opera’s long association with dismantling gender binaries. But at the heart of the film are three singers on unique journeys: Breanna Sinclairé\, a soprano dreaming of performing traditional leading roles; Lucas Bouk\, a baritone searching for his place in modern opera repertoire; and Katherine Goforth\, a rising star who is committed to redefining the opera’s boundaries. \nA reception will follow the event.  \nRead more about the event on the IHUM website.

SUMMARY:Film Studies Lecture - Ghosts and Guests in the Machine: Animism and Technology
DESCRIPTION:Film is historically based on animating single shots into moving images – therefore\, one can look at film as a technique of animation beyond animation as a genre of film. With this comes the impression of liveliness\, which is the result of the cinematographic animation of the spectator. We animate machines\, machines animate us. This simple reciprocity grounds the basic relationship between hands\, tools\, instruments\, machines etc. and the human body as senso-motoric perceptive player. Leaving the dualism that came with the concept of mind as a ‘ghost in the machine’ of a physical\, mechanical body or the master narrative of machines as the alien who intrudes a human world and body I will explore specific cases of technologically produced and enhanced artworks how the interplay between machines and humans may point to a technoaesthetic that offers a wider horizon on this interaction. \nProf. Dr. Gertrud Koch. Professor Emerita for Cinema Studies at Freie Universität Berlin\, visiting professor at Brown University (2013-2023)\, and served as Professor II at Oslo University. Currently visiting professor at Leuphana-Universität in Lüneburg and at Princeton University.

SUMMARY:The Unburied: Material Histories of Film in the Owens Valley
DESCRIPTION:The Owens Valley\, a slender stretch of high desert in Eastern California\, is a place of origins. It has played a major\, if underrecognized\, role in the industrial development of Los Angeles\, particularly for the silver extracted in the late 19th century and the water diverted into the Los Angeles Aqueduct in the early 20th. These and other histories have been inscribed\, though often miswritten\, in film\, including in the nearly 500 Hollywood productions shot in the region’s Alabama Hills. But look closer into these beginnings and one will find traces of the lives and labors of dispossessed Indigenous peoples\, Mexican settlers\, and Asian immigrants. This talk focuses on the latter group: Chinese miners killed in a devastating accident at the Cerro Gordo mine\, Japanese-Americans interned at Manzanar\, and the minor characters that\, through their background expressions in films\, point to a different direction for the Hollywood imaginary. The history of film\, in its most basic\, material composition of silver nitrate\, is conditioned by these half-buried figures\, however incidental they have been to an already neglected landscape. As the experience of “film” has become all but entirely digitized\, the retrieval of these foundational elements of the film image reveals a representational form whose geographical and material origins are still largely unexplored. \nBio:\nGenevieve Yue is an associate professor of Culture and Media and director of the Screen Studies program at Eugene Lang College\, The New School. She is co-editor of the Cutaways series at Fordham University Press\, and her essays and criticism have appeared in Reverse Shot\, October\, Grey Room\, The Times Literary Supplement\, Film Comment\, and Film Quarterly. She is also an independent film programmer\, with screenings at Anthology Film Archives\, Metrograph\, Light Industry\, and\, most recently\, Tallinn Photomonth\, a biennial of contemporary art and visual culture in Tallinn\, Estonia. Her book Girl Head: Feminism and Film Materiality was published in 2020 by Fordham University Press.

SUMMARY:Faber Lecture - From the Cloud to the Resistance
DESCRIPTION:The paper discusses Abbas Kiarostami’s 1979 film\, First Case\, Second Case. Completed at the end of the Iranian Revolution\, just days before the Shah fled Iran and Khomeini returned from\nexile to take command of the newly-liberated nation\, the film had to be significantly revised in the face of this historical scission and an uncertain future. What was at stake in this moment\, Khomeini claimed\, was the sensorium of the Iranian people and the role cinema should play in restoring it. Kiarostami took these stakes seriously and responded directly. \nJoan Copjec is a philosopher\, theorist\, and feminist film scholar. Her books include Imagine There’s No Woman: Ethics and Sublimation (MIT Press\, 2003)\, Read My Desire: Lacan against the Historicists (MIT Press\, 1994)\, and Supposing the Subject (Verso\, 1994)

SUMMARY:Before and After the Cinematic Turn: Passages de l’image\, 1990
DESCRIPTION:In the past thirty years\, the moving image has undergone an immense transformation in status\, migrating from the fringes of contemporary art to occupy a central position within it\, filling museums around the world. Why did this shift occur\, and how did it entail a rethinking of cinema\, art\, and the relationships between them?The answer to this question cannot be found by examining artistic practices alone; rather\, a history of exhibitions is needed\, one that does more than enshrine the curator as author. \nThis talk will take up this task by returning to the landmark 1990 exhibition “Passages de l’image.” Curated by Raymond Bellour\, Catherine David\, and Christine van Assche\, it marked the first time the Centre Pompidou devoted an exhibition entirely to mechanically and electronically reproducible images. Drawing on archival research\, this presentation will explore how “Passages” marks a key turning point in both the exhibition of moving images in the gallery and the reconfiguration of the relationship between art and cinema that has taken place in the last 30 years\, delineating a field of inquiry that would be taken up internationally throughout the 1990s. \nErika Balsom is a senior lecturer in Film Studies and Liberal Arts at King’s College London. She is the author of After Uniqueness: A History of Film and Video Art in Circulation (2017) and Exhibiting Cinema in Contemporary Art (2013)\, and the co-editor of Documentary Across Disciplines (2016). Her article\, “Instant Failure: Polaroid’s Polavision\, 1977–80” is the winner of the 2018 Katherine Singer Kovacs essay award from the Society of Cinema and Media Studies. She is a frequent contributor to Artforum and Sight and Sound\, and in 2017 was the international curator in residence at the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery/Len Lye Centre\, New Zealand\, resulting in the 2018 screening program and publication An Oceanic Feeling: Cinema and the Sea.

SUMMARY:The Guest’s View: Objectivity\, Disposability\, and Ann Hui’s Cinema
DESCRIPTION:With reference to the acclaimed Hong Kong director Ann Hui (許鞍華)\, this lecture discusses the notion of “the guest’s perspective” in relation to Chinese idiom\, cinematic form\, and the class politics of contemporary migranthood. The lecture will include remarks on Hui’s thought-provoking film 天水圍的夜與霧 / Night and Fog (2009). \nRey Chow is the Anne Firor Scott Professor of Literature at Duke University.  Chow’s research comprises theoretical\, interdisciplinary\, and textual analyses. Since her years as a graduate student at Stanford University\, she has specialized in the making of cultural forms such as literature and film (with particular attention to East Asia\, Western Europe\, and North America)\, and in the discursive encounters among modernity\, sexuality\, postcoloniality\, and ethnicity. Her book PRIMITIVE PASSIONS was awarded the James Russell Lowell Prize by the Modern Language Association. In her current work\, Chow is concerned with the legacies of poststructuralist theory (in particular the work of Michel Foucault)\, the politics of language as a postcolonial phenomenon\, and the shifting paradigms for knowledge and lived experience in the age of visual technologies and digital media.

SUMMARY:Sonnen Allee
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Berlin in Film series \nMichael is a teenager coming of age in 1970s East Berlin. He and his friends daily traverse Sonnenallee\, a street bisected by the West Berlin border\, an ever-present reminder of a free world just beyond the wall. The teens rebel against their insular communist surroundings by immersing themselves in contraband rock records and other forms of pop art. What is at first a fad becomes a lifesaver as each kid comes to face the crushing realities of impending adulthood. \nRefreshments provided

SUMMARY:Media Archaeology as Symptom
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, April 16\, the Humanities Council will host the final lecture in a new\, seven-part\, year-long speaker series about the field of Media Studies\, Positions and Prospects\, organized by Devin Fore (German). Thomas Elsaesser\, University of Amsterdam/Columbia University\, will deliver the talk. \nAbstract  \nFor almost a hundred years\, film has been discussed primarily from the perspective of photography: cinema either as a perceptual-ocular dispositif\, based on light\, projection (and sound)\, or as a recording dispositif\, based on index\, imprint and trace. If such a history implies the ‘death of cinema’ and cuts the past off from the present\, what may be needed is an ‘archaeology’ alongside a history – in other words: different pasts to enable and acknowledge other futures. The paper will consider the changing presence of the moving image in art spaces and the tech-sector\, using Harun Farocki’s work as both symptom and paradigm. \nThomas Elsaesser is Professor Emeritus at the University of Amsterdam and since 2013 teaches part-time at Columbia University\, New York. Among his most recent books are: The Persistence of Hollywood (New York: Routledge\, 2012)\, German Cinema – Terror and Trauma: Cultural Memory Since 1945 (New York: Routledge\, 2013)\, Film Theory: An Introduction through the Senses (New York: Routledge\, 2nd edition 2015\, with Malte Hagener) and Film History as Media Archaeology (Amsterdam University Press\, 2016). In press: European Cinema and Continental Philosophy: Film as Thought Experiment (Bloomsbury\, 2018)

SUMMARY:Act and Punishment
DESCRIPTION:Evgeny Mitta’s film\, Act and Punishment\, is a documentary that historically and culturally grounds the protest actions of Pussy Riot. The film\, which the Russian government has banned\, juxtaposes interviews with members of Pussy Riot who tell their own stories alongside commentary by Russian art historians\, curators\, and artists who contextualize their work. The film makes extensive use of raw footage depicting Pussy Riot’s actions and Pussy Riot inspired demonstrations in Russia. This will be the first time that filmmaker\, Evgeny Mitta\, will be in the United States to present his film. Evgeny Mitta will discuss history of Russian performance art/music\, the making of his documentary film\, queerness of femme holy fools\, and provide some context on Russia-US relations. As a friend to the Pussy Riot collective and many other Russian political artists\, Evgeny can speak on the intersections of politics\, sexuality\, class\, and gender that are portrayed in his film. \nEvgeny Mitta is a visual artist\, documentary filmmaker\, scenographer\, and actor. Born and raised in Moscow\, Russia\, he graduated from the Moscow State Art Institute of V. Surikov. Soon after graduating\, he co-founded “First Gallery” the first private artist gallery in Russia and since then he has opened the Paperworks Gallery. In 1994 he became a member of Moscow Artists’ Association and he has had his paintings sold at Sotheby’s London ‘Contemporary East’ in 2013. His movie\, Act and Punishment\, is a part of a documentary series “Anthology of Contemporary Art” which includes two other movies\, Vinogradov and Dubosarskiy: Commissioned Painting\, and Oleg Kulik: Challenge and Provocation. Evgeny’s next film focuses on the protests of 2012 in Moscow\, and is titled 2012.
