So come to Sherman Oaks and meet the next David Lynch or Maya Deren. We promise you will see nothing normal here.

  • Women/Men/Animals: Film & Video Works by Valie Export

    By on
    Selbstportrait mit Kopf (Valie Export, 1966-1967)

    Artist Valie Export (b. Linz, Austria, 1940) is known for a body of film, video, performance and installation work focusing on the embodied position of the female artist situated in the contemporary patriarchal dystopia. Emerging from the same post-war context of generational reckoning that spawned Viennese Aktionism, Export’s work eschews the Aktionists’ self-abusing quests for catharsis, creating instead intimately mediated performances, that, while just as confrontational and assertively body-based, present darker critiques of media and representation while exploring the politics of eroticism and presenting subtly bitter attacks on bourgeois consumption and relations.
