A Closer Look: Sue Ford’s Films

A CLOSER LOOK: SUE FORD'S FILMS
Presented in partnership with Deakin University


📸 Presented alongside the Women Photographers: 1900–1975 exhibition and celebrating the ground-breaking work of artist and filmmaker Sue Ford, we delve into the radical creativity of 1970s feminist photography.

Featuring screenings of a selection of Sue Ford’s films and an introduction to the exhibition by NGV Curator of Photography, Maggie Finch, the program will finish with a discussion reflecting on how Ford and other artists during this period used the medium of photography and film to challenge conventions of representation, identity and gender equality.
