As a warm up screening to our much anticipated Being Ruby Rich season this June, we screen Lynn Hershman Leeson’s era defining documentary !Women Art Revolution, doing exactly what the title says. Through intimate interviews (including B Ruby Rich, The Guerilla Girls, Yoko Ono), art and rarely seen archival film and video footage, !WAR reveals how the Feminist Art Movement fused free speech and politics into an art that radically transformed the culture of our times.
With introductions by Club des Femmes, Sarah Turner, artist filmmaker (Public House) & Liv Wynter on behalf of WHEREISANAMENDIETA.
A Club des Femmes and Barbican collaboration, in association with Birkbeck College.
Programme supported by Film Hub London, managed by Film London. Proud to be a partner of the BFI Film Audience Network, funded by the National Lottery.
