FREE MOVIE SCREENING
EVERYONE WELCOME
BRING YOUR OWN FOOD AND DRINKS

A night of screening several short films and a feature length film that explore indigenous resistance in the global context. Through the medium of documentary, video art and film, these featured films exhibit acts of resistance which interrupt a narrow definition of the term, offering insights into new strategies of resistance to contemporary marginalizations, colonizations, demonizations, and misrepresentations. They also expose the current moment of occupation on indigenous lands and the variety of methods used by indigenous peoples to oppose continued military, socio-economic, political and cultural oppressions.

The films will be introduced by the evening’s curators, Dana Olwan and Carla Taunton.

Films to be screened:
Alanis Obomsawin’s “Kanehsatake 270 Years of Resistance” (1993)
Jayce Salloum and Elia Suleiman’s “Introduction to the End of An Argument” (1990)
Jacqueline Salloum, “Planet of the Arabs” (2005)
Dana Claxton’s “Buffalo Bone China” (1997)

Drinks, Refreshments and a Surprise!

In 1966, the American recording artist Bob Dylan died in a motorcycle accident. His audience, however, refused to let him go. By wishing really hard, and by clapping their hands together, boys and girls of all ages were able to give life again to Dylan gone to ashes, like the Golem.

Forty years later, the Artel presents the exhibition “Jewels and Binoculars.” Bob’s children have grown in size and number, and now that the applause is so great, Dylan can die again and live eternally. Some of these children have produced the various artworks exhibited in “Jewels and Binoculars,” in memory of Bob. Bob is dead. Long live Bob.

Participating artists include: Michael Davidge, Isaac Gillis, Wendy Huot, Jeremy Mulder, Aly Ogasian, Chantal Rousseau (Toronto, ON), Lisa Visser, Lucie Claire Whitehead (Victoria, BC), Daniel Wong (Lethbridge, AB). With special appearances by, amongst others, Daniel Saunders.

You can fill your pockets to the brim with shine and still have some left for your shoes. The slobbery glint won’t be thick enough, though, to mask the colour underneath: the inimitable hue that plagues us to our very cores, aches to be seen by all…YELLOW.

dare i say… there will be puppets!
