Women in Revolt! Radical Acts, Contemporary Resonances conference
Tate Britain, 22 – 23 March 2024
Contemporary Resonances: futures for feminist moving image, performance and sound
Roundtable discussion, 22 March
“To conclude the first day of the conference, we invite some prominent cultural figures working in their fields to reflect on how moving image, performance and sound are currently being curated, archived, commissioned, and practiced. What are the challenges when working with these more ephemeral modes of feminist art making? What role might curatorial and archival work play to bring less well-known feminist figures and collective work practice to the fore? What impact might exhibitions such as Women in Revolt! have for future feminist art making?
Chaired by Professor May Adadol Ingawanij (CREAM), the roundtable will include curator and writer Karen Alexander, artist and Director of the Decolonising Arts Institute (UAL) susan pui san lok < > susan, lok pui san, artist Aura Satz, Charlotte Procter and Louise Shelley of the Cinenova Working Group and Curator of Contemporary of British Art at Tate Britain Linsey Young, who curated the exhibition Women in Revolt! Art and Activism in the UK 1970–1990.”
