An evening with seminal queer and feminist filmmaker Barbara Hammer! With an introduction and Q&A with Hammer. Works include: Dyketactics (1974), Superdyke (1975), Menses (1976), Women I Love (1976), Multiple Orgasm (1976), Double Strength (1978).

Born in Los Angeles but a New Yorker by choice, Barbara Hammer is a whole genre unto herself. Her pioneering 1974 short film Dyketactics, a four-minute, hippie wonder consisting of frolicking naked women in the countryside, broke new ground for its exploration of lesbian identity, desire and aesthetic. Hammer calls the film her ‘lesbian commercial.’ She went on to become one of the brightest and most significant lesbian avant-garde filmmaking voices of the past 40 years, whose work includes over 80 film and video works covering lesbian love and sex, women’s spirituality, radical feminist politics, the figure of the goddess, and lesbian/queer film history. Hammer has had retrospectives at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, Tate Modern, London, and at the Toronto International Film Festival.

“Without Barbara there would be no Born in Flames (1983), no Desert Hearts (1985), no Go Fish (1994).” -Selina Robertson
