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 & 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.
