Hanne Darboven & Film
In conjunction with its exhibition, "Hanne Darboven: Works 1969/1972/1983" (September 4 to November 7) the Busch-Reisinger Museum is delighted to join the Harvard Film Archive in presenting the American premieres of two films by German artist Hanne Darboven. Like many European and American artists active in the late 1960s, Darboven turned to the film medium as an alternate way of exploring her visual thinking. In addition to the two works by Darboven, there will be a special showing of Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s The Marriage of Maria Braun, a film invoked by the artist in a work included in the exhibition. Each of the films will be introduced by either Peter Nisbet or Brigid Doherty, co-curators of the exhibition.
