SUMMARY:Book Signing + Talk with filmmaker Jill Goldman
DESCRIPTION:Please join Arcana: Books on the Arts this Saturday\, February 21st between 4:00 and 6:00 PM as we welcome Los Angeles-based artist\, activist\, and filmmaker Jill Goldman to celebrate the launch of her new monograph\, Disentanglement / Re-Embodiment. As well as signing copies\, Ms. Goldman will engage in what promises to be a lively discussion with noted independent filmmaker Nina Menkes. \nFrom the publisher: “Disentanglement / Re-Embodiment documents five years of bold\, deeply embodied work at the edge of art and politics. Developed between 2020 and 2025\, the work spans video\, performance\, photography\, installation\, and political research\, unfolding in a single\, cohesive publication that investigates how we live inside of – and push back against – patriarchal power and environmental crisis.  Its content centers on ten performance works\, staged internationally by Goldman and collaborators weaving over two hundred images of performance documentation\, film stills\, research ephemera\, and installation views. The book includes critical essays by Asti Hustvedt and Alex A. Jones\, as well as extracts from conversations between the artist and noted thinkers shaping contemporary feminist\, abolitionist\, eco-critical\, and anti-militarist discourse including Amy Ziering\, Yasmeen Hassan\, Sumaya Awad\, Catherine Coleman Flowers\, Nina Menkes\, Ruchira Gupta\, and Tanya Selvaratnam.” \nWe look forward to seeing you this Saturday for the opportunity to meet and greet Ms. Goldman – and to pick up a signed example of her engaging new book! If you cannot attend and would like to purchase a signed copy of Disentanglement / Re-Embodiment\, please place your order here! \n\n		\n	 \n \n	\n		\n			PURCHASE THE BOOK\n		\n	 \n \n\n \n	\n		\n		\n		\n	  \n	\n		\n		\n		\n	 \n \n	\n		\n			\nJill Goldman is an activist\, filmmaker\, and artist whose work incorporates dance\, performance\, photography\, and video.

She is the director of the feature film Love Is Like That\, as well as many award-winning short films\, including fort / da\, Holding Margie’s Hand\, Sally Goes Shopping\, the music video for Lenny Kravitz’s “Blues for Sister Someone\,” and the short documentary Genevieve\, Girl Before the Mirror. \nNina Menkes is considered a cinematic feminist pioneer and one of America’s foremost independent filmmakers. She has shown widely in major international film festivals including multiple premieres at Sundance\, the Berlinale\, Cannes\, Rotterdam\, Locarno\, Toronto\, La Cinematheque Francaise\, British Film Institute\, the Whitney Museum of American Art\, and the New York Film Festival. Menkes has been called\, “brilliant\, one of the most provocative artists in film today” by the Los Angeles Times and her body of work was described as\, “controversial\, intense\, and visually stunning” by Sight and Sound. Menkes has referred to herself as a witch\, and Dennis Lim\, writing in the New York Times\, called her a “Cinematic Sorceress.”
