[Commlist] new book: Ulrike Ottinger: Film, Art and the Ethnographic Imagination

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.
