On November 21st: On Film and Framed: Curatorial Collective have planned an evening of events that will take place on campus. We will screen Borden’s third film, Working Girls (1986), in the Gowan Room of Wilson Commons. Following the film screening is the opening reception of Sex/Labor in the Hartnett Gallery, an art exhibition that places Working Girls into conversation with contemporary art about sex work. The reception will include artist talks, and a paneled discussion with Borden and two artists whose work is part of Sex/Labor: Barbara Nitke and Antonia Crane. These events are free and open to the public. Free parking is available onsite in the Library lot (see attached map).
