These two women’s archives serve as important repositories of lesbian history via film, video, books, photographs and ephemera. This screening will examine the overlapping of lesbian political activist documentation & experimental media art. In a short discussion after the screening we will discuss value that these archives hold as resources for artists, curators and queer political historians.
