This morning, students participated in a creative writing workshop led by poet Stephen Delbos. After lunch, they returned to the art studio at the Meet Factory to keep working on their second large drawings.
Then it was time for dinner. Pictured below: Nathan and Bramboro the parrot. Bramboro (which means “potato”) is one of the artists in residence at the Meet Factory studios. Evidently she likes pizza.
After dinner, we returned to the art studio for a lecture and film screening by Czech video artist and filmmaker Lucie Rosenfeldova.
Sometimes you have to touch up the “screen” with a bit of white paint . . . Thank you, Dammy and Kyrstyn, for your good work!
Lucie Rosenfeldová works in the medium of experimental documentary video. From her artist bio: “The center of the author’s practice is primarily the medium of experimental documentary video, in which she uses elements of autobiography, while the work on the film is accompanied by research.”
In her lecture, titled “Selected Feminist Perspectives in Contemporary Czech Moving Image,” Rosenfeldová showed clips from five films made by women in former Czechoslovakia and now Czech Republic. Her selections and discussion focused on feminist approaches to filmmaking and video art expressed in these videos.
Here is Nate introducing Lucie Rosenfeldová in our makeshift studio cinema.
And here is Rosenfeldová giving her lecture and screening.
