Join us for a celebration of the work of trailblazing artist Carolee Schneemann (1939-2019), whose practice explored the body—often her own—as a site for questioning representation, boundaries, and social constraints.
This free screening, ‘Body Rushes’, presents four key works by the artist, accompanied by discussions about Schneemann’s artistic influence with Professor Susan Best, artist Naomi Blacklock, and Queensland Film Festival programmer John Edmond.
Please note: this screening contains content of a graphic sexual nature and is not suitable for people under 18 years.
