It's almost too much to digest in one viewing...a visceral impact.”—Screen SlateA BODY TO LIVE IN, the new feature-film by Angelo Madsen, is an uncompromising, no-holds-barred look at the agonies and ecstasies of the controversial artist Fakir Musafar (1930–2018), the infamous icon of BDSM performance art, body modification, and the ‘modern primitives’ cultural movement. Join filmmaker and performance artist in conversation with ONE Archives curatorial assistant in a night that explores the life and work of this legendary photographer, performer, and gender flex cultural icon. Selections from the film will be interspersed with conversation that uncovers a riveting story of queer, artistic, and cultural history through the exploration of Fakir’s art practice and philosophy. Featuring never-before-seen archival images and interviews in 16mm film from A BODY TO LIVE IN, join us for a night that foregrounds intergenerational dialog, questions cultural responsibility, and provokes larger ideas about the drive to transcend the limits of the body.Click here to read more.Presented by USC Visions and Voices.
