Barbara and Steven Grossman Gallery

Organized in the form of a continued dialogue and culminating with the production of a multimedia publication, "Histories of Now: A Space for Dialogue, Art and Activism" transforms the gallery into a site of international and local exchanges focusing on current events in Egypt, and using these events as a means of discussing a multiplicity of contemporary social movements.

12:30PM - 2:00PM - Visiting Artist Lecture: Marie Losier

Alfond Auditorium MFA, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Free tickets may be obtained from MFA ticket desks and kiosks.

Losier was born in France in 1972, and lives in New York City where she is a filmmaker and curator at the French Institute Alliance Francaise. She has made a number of film portraits on avant-garde directors, musicians and composers such as Mike and George Kuchar, Guy Maddin, Richard Foreman, Tony Conrad and Genesis P-Orridge. Whimsical, poetic, dreamlike and unconventional, her films explore the life and work of these artists. Her newest project and first feature film, The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye, is a portrait of pioneering musician-artist Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (of Throbbing Gristle and Psychic TV) and his/her partner Lady Jaye. The film premiered at the FORUM at the Berlin Film Festival in 2011 and won two awards: the Caligary Award and the Teddy. This feature will be screened as part of her lecture in February 5.
