{"product_id":"9783777429922","title":"Barbara Hammer: Evidentary Bodies by","description":"Barbara Hammer (b. 1939) is an American feminist  artist known as a pioneer of queer experimental and documentary film. In October 2017,  Leslie Lohman Museum of Gay \u0026amp; Lesbian Art will  present a comprehensive solo exhibition to celebrate  the depth and expa nse of Hammer's five decades of  art making.    Bringing together both known and previously unseen  works of film and video, installations, works on paper, and material from her archive, the  exhibition addresses critical themes that appear in Hammer's work, inc luding: lesbian  representation, subjectivity, and sexuality; intimacy  and sensation; and conditions and maintenance of life  and illness. This exhibition highlights the resonating  impact of Hammer's artistic narrative and material  experimentation across dis ciplines within queer art  history.    Additionally, as part of this exhibition, we are putting  together a publication that will touch on different  aspects of Hammer's body of wor k and practice. The  material included will look at her work in relationship  to experimental queer cinema; lesbian sexuality and  lesbian feminist history; hapticity and wildness;  viruses, medicine, and environment; to name a few.  We desire for the book to f eature a wide range of  responses, from academic analysis to poetic  interpretation, sprinkled with personal and artistic  anecdotes. More of a hybrid monograph and  catalogue raisonne, we are very excited that this book  will be the first of its kind that cele brates five decades  of Hammer's work.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56311004004725,"sku":"9783777429922","price":24.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9783777429922.jpg?v=1762816127","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9783777429922","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
