OIDF Presents a series of film screenings and International panel discussions exploring what it is to be a female creative artists in today's environment.

The series of film screenings and panel discussions will be led by  Choreographer, performing artist, scholar, and filmmaker Richard Move. Move’s interdisciplinary degree in Performance Studies from NYU draws on the fields of anthropology, theatre, and history.  Studies explore feminist, queer, postcolonial, Marxist, psychoanalytic, and critical race theory.  Research and analysis methods include fieldwork, interviews, archival research, and movement analysis.  Move will be discussing the process in the creation and development of their films, the chosen subject matter, and the questions posed by them using some of these disciplines.  Exploring dance and music through an interdisciplinary lens will add depth and awareness to the Oklahoma International Dance Festival.  The films’ subject matter is listed below.

BloodWork: The Ana Mendieta Story, GIMP – The Documentary, Homage to Allan Kaprow: On the Way to Un-Art, and Bardo
