An exploration of perversity and gaze in cinema
Follow us for online talks and interventions, discussing themes of Bonington Gallery's exhibition, Peepshow: An Illusion Cut to the Measure of Desire.
In Peep Show, feminist collective Invisible Women bring together a series of archive fragments which explore the interaction between spectator and subject and between eye and body across the history of film. In this rich, wide-ranging discussion about the exhibition, we’ll explore crucial theories (from Lacan to Mulvey to Žižek) to help us understand what it means to watch and be watched, voyeurism, and the perverse nature of cinema.
Curated by Invisible Women Archive. In collaboration with Bonington Gallery, Nottingham Trent University.
Free
This event will take place at Bonington Gallery, Dryden Street NG1 4GG
This event is part of Bonington Gallery's Peep Show exhibition.
Invisible Women seek out and champion the work of women and filmmakers with marginalised identities who have been overlooked, un-credited or left out of the history of cinema. By drawing attention to these forgotten stories, Invisible Women aim to reinsert female voices into the story of film.
