TESSA HUGHES-FREELAND AND ELA TROYANO: ELEGY FOR JEAN GENET
An evening of works by Tessa Hughes-Freeland and Ela Troyano including the
first performance in over twenty years of their collaborative work “Elegy for
Jean Genet” (1994-1997) a live expanded cinema performance dedicated to the
writings of the French playwright, poet and filmmaker, and based upon a musical
composition by John Zorn. The work – which debuted in the Knitting Factory in
Manhattan in 1994 and later appeared at the 10th Anniversary of the MIX
Festival (1996) and toured Europe with Zorn’s Tzadik record label in 1997 –
involves multiple projections of Super 8mm film, 16mm film, and 35mm slides,
combining original imagery with found imagery, including of 1970s gay, S&M
porn, auto-erotic pleasure, and pop culture. The visual score is improvised to
the four tracks of Zorn’s “Elegy” composition: “Blue”, “Yellow”, “Pink” and
“Black” and footage manipulated by the artists through the use of colored gels,
mirrors and other materials. Tessa Hughes-Freeland and Ela Troyano have been
collaborating on live multiple projection cinema and produced countless
performances, most notably for musician John Zorn. Their collaboration with
Zorn, “Playboy Voodoo” was performed at The Whitney Museum of American Art as
part of the exhibition “No Wave Cinema”. For Roulette TV, Hughes-Freeland and
Troyano in 2002 presented an Expanded Cinema Performance with Zorn’s
“Godard”.The film “Playboy Voodoo” (1991), also a collaboration between
Hughes-Freeland & Troyano with soundtrack by John Zorn, will precede the
performance. Q&A with the artists follows. 1329 Willoughby Avenue, #2B. Full

7pm, Parkway Theatre
FROM THE BACK OF THE ROOM AT THE PARKWAY THEATRE!
Presented by Baltimore's Film Fatales, From the Back of the Room screens at the
Parkway *one night only* in Baltimore! "Many people have the impression that
the Riot Grrrl movement in the mid-90s was the end-all, be-all of female
involvement in DIY punk. This is definitely not the case! Plenty of amazing
ladies prior to this era paved the way for it, and plenty of amazing ladies
continue to help keep DIY together today. This documentary chronicles the past
30 years of female involvement in DIY punk, and has interviews with over 30
women from across the country, ages 17 to 40. Race, gender, sexuality,
motherhood, class, and activism are all addressed in this film, giving a more
complete picture of how these women participate in the DIY community, and how
it affects their daily lives." Come for the film, stay for the Director Q & A!

THROUGH A DIFFERENT LENS / FILM WORK BY JOANNA MARGARET PAUL
Introduced by Peter Todd Drawing comparisons with the Orcadian filmmaker
Margaret Tait, New Zealand artist Joanna Margaret Paul (1945-2003) worked
prolifically across film, poetry and painting. Her film work chronicles
motherhood and domestic life, urban settlement and the persistent presence of
the natural world. Curated by artist Peter Todd, this is the first collection
to make Paul’s work available to an international audience. Its 12 works, all
silent, were shot in the 1970s on 8mm and 16mm film and subsequently
transferred to HD video. ‘Paul’s films were made in relative artistic isolation
from avant-garde film discourse in the mid-1970s, but are rooted in an acute
feminist politics that focuses on concerns of shared female social spaces and
everyday domestic situations.’ —Frieze Tickets: £6/£4 concessions Through A
Different Lens / Film Work by Joanna Margaret Paul curated by Peter Todd.
Commissioned by CIRCUIT Artist Film and Video Aotearoa New Zealand with the
assistance of the estate of Joanna Margaret Paul and Robert Heald Gallery.
Linked screening at the Star & Shadow Cinema Peter Todd will introduce a
screening of his own work the following evening, Friday 29 June, at the Star &
Shadow Cinema, Warwick Street. See <http://www.starandshadow.org.uk>

ALL THE FILMS OF XANDRA IBARRA*
Queering the Southwest means remembering how Mexicans fleeing the revolution of
1910 and its violence created many Angelenxs with El Paso roots. Originally
from El Paso, Xandra Ibarra’s work charges the connections between El Paso and
Los Angeles, their borderlands and their histories of colonization through a
feminist queer femme lens. Ibarra’s work will be show in Redz Bar, a lesbian
bar that opened in the late 1950s and catered primarily to queer, working-class
Chicanas. Redz Bar closed its doors in 2015 after over 50 years. Ibarra’s work
resonates with the history of Redz Bar by remembering the queer and colonial
histories that brought Mexicans from El Paso to East L.A. throughout the 20th
century. Spictacle I: Dominatrix of the Barrio, video, 3 min., 2014 Spictacle

A MOST UNUSUAL FILM FESTIVAL
A 50th Anniversary multimedia celebration of L.A.’s first gay film festival
held in the summer of ‘68 -- plus 16mm screenings of two key works from the
original event: the frothy, sunbaked antics of MY HUSTLER (arguably Warhol’s
most buoyant feature film, featuring a proto-John Waters sensibility) and the
Kodakchrome sublimity of JEROVI (a short, sensual retelling of the Narcissus
myth.) Picture it: MacArthur Park, 1968. In an attempt to court a growing,
lucrative gay male audience, the sexploitation-centric Park Theater (on
Alvarado, next door to Langer’s Delicatessen) swaps out its calendar of hetero
cheesecake for a boundary-pushing slate of male-only content. Kicking off this
seismic wave is “A Most Unusual Film Festival” -- a summer-long parade of the
Sixties’ queerest underground hits. Join us as we pay homage to this
groundbreaking first public sign of gay erotic filmmaking, where films by
Warhol, Jack Smith, Pat Rocco, Mike Kuchar and even the Mekas Brothers collided
in happy, horny harmony with lost gems like NUDIST BEACH BOY SURFERS and AN
INTERLUDE IN THE DESERT. Featuring: José Rodríguez-Soltero, Jerovi ( 16mm, 11
min, 1965 ) + Andy Warhol, My Hustler ( 16mm, 76 min, 1965 ). $15
