We here at Cinematheque Films applaud all of this very important work. It’s solid and at times extraordinary. Personally, as an artist, what it brings up for me is an esoteric stretch to the whole notion of there being so much cultural indifference to art itself. The whole phenomenon of “discovering” someone and their work who has always been there. Working. Sometimes for cultural change. For us as a film group, we find ourselves perpetually on our knees begging at the gates of beautiful for anyone to even take a look at our work at all. This transcends the necessary agendas of artistic feminism. It goes to the heart of the relationship that exists — as a conflict — between what art is and does and what culture is and reacts to. I do wonder where “the art catalogue” fits into all of this and how such a thing can bring people into art and what art speaks to — change, yes — especially in the ways in which we see our values and ourselves versus allowing the disengaged the safety of the disengaged. Feminism is still very much alive. Obviously. The question is one that has to do with an entire cultural movement being too little and too late.

I too applaud this very important and historic work. It has been a looong time coming. But obviously you are not a woman, because women KNOW how looong this change takes. It takes a lifetime, and then another, and then another,… and even then, how can you be satisfied with the results of cultural movement? I know I’m not!If you think it is hard begging at the gates of beautiful, try clawing your way, fighting your way, living your way, and dying your way, only to maybe have your work viewed, and have it rejected time and time again. Most women are used to too little, too late, but then again, later is better than never. So us women will take later, so hopefully, we will most certainly not have a never.
