War Paint – Women At War - a Margy Kinmonth film
About
Please join us for a special evening with SPGS alumna, film director Margy Kinmonth. Margy will be in conversation about her film War Paint – Women At War with SPGS Teacher of History, Liza Coutts.
Margy Kinmonth’s outstanding new film shines a light on the trailblazing role of women war artists, on the front lines round the world, championing the female perspective on conflict through art and asking: when it's life or death, what do women see that men don't?
Traditionally a male domain, war art by women has been largely unrecognised. Until now...Culture breaks the taboo, crosses borders - tells the truth to power. An entirely female cast of contributors makes this film a unique undertaking – telling vital truths in turbulent times.
Artists featured include Dame Rachel Whiteread, Zhanna Kadyrova, Maggi Hambling, Assil Diab, Dame Laura Knight, Marcelle Hanselaar, Cornelia Parker, Maya Lin, Shirin Neshat and Lee Miller.
Proceeds from this event will be donated to the SPGS bursary fund.
