ASMI 2022 CfP
Thursday, 21st April at 6:00 pm
Italian Institute of Culture in Edinburgh
Art and photography become a voice for women’s rights - in a historical period (1970s) that is fundamental for the self-affirmation of contemporary women.
For Marcella Campagnano and Liliana Barchiesi, photography is a means of constructing relationships, exchange of ideas and new strategies of female expression: in their hands the photographic medium is used to deconstruct the gender stereotypes.
Two documentaries showing the activist and political use of photography as a tool for depicting reality by casting a gendered gaze that explores the differences of gender.
The Invention of the Feminine Roles (2020) (10 min.), directed by Giulio Bernardi.
Storia di donne - Immagini 1974/1979 (2008) (17 min.), directed by Liliana Barchiesi.
Professor Perry Willson, University of Dundee, will make the introduction and a Q&A with Liliana Barchiesi, who will be participating online, will follow the projections.
