A Conference dedicated to the work of Chantal Akerman.
After Chantal: An International Conference marks the anniversary of the filmmaker’s death and also of the UK’s first retrospective exhibition of her installation work at Ambika P3, University of Westminster, which opened in October 2015.
Speakers will consider both how Akerman disrupted the polemics of art and cinema and the lasting effects of her work. Papers will address Akerman’s work directly or explore her influence on other cultural forms, examining themes such as Fiction and Non-Fiction, Archetypes, the Nomadic, Sound, Installation, Theory and Legacy
