Zelfportret470: Self-portraits from Argentine Women + Q&A

AgX Film Collective presents "Zelfportret470", a curated program of 17 short self-portraits on video by Argentine women.

In 1598 the Flemish artist Catharina van Hemessen painted her self-portrait, which is usually considered the first portrait of an artist, of either gender, depicted seated at an easel. 

470 years after that milestone, we gathered a selection of audiovisual self-portraits made by female artists living in Argentina, who are also members of AREA Asociación de Realizadores Experimentales Audiovisuales

The films and videos included in this screening have different approaches to self-representation, and were produced by using a variety of moving image devices. Digitized films, analogue and digital video works as well as found footage and videos captured by mobile phones are part of this selection that includes the first performative self-portrait in the history of Argentine video art.
