Wed Jul 24 08:37:01 GMT 2024




Intellect is pleased to share that /Ulrike Ottinger: Film, Art and the Ethnographic Imagination <https://www.intellectbooks.com/ulrike-ottinger>/, edited by Angela McRobbie, is out in paperback and hardback.

The first English language scholarly collection of essays on the leading Berlin based German artist and filmmaker Ulrike Ottinger. This volume engages with the full range of her works, from the early Berlin feature films of the 1970s and '80s to the ethnographic documentaries, also including the art exhibitions, photography shows and installations. The book brings together feminist film theorists with art historians and cultural theorists, each with a distinctive and detailed perspective on the queer fabulist genres of Ottinger now in her eighties.
