The End of the Sentence: Redlines and Empty Cages



Saturday 10:30 h -
Judy Rabinowitz Price, London
Price discusses her current research towards a new film that explores the overwritten histories and redrawn boundaries of Holloway Women’s Prison, the largest women’s prison in Western Europe and the only women’s prison in London until it was decommissioned in 2016. Her talk will reflect on Holloway’s legacy spatially and ideologically as a site of remembrance and absence. The work continues her interest in dialogical aesthetics, aesthetics of commitment and the politics of enunciation and how her practice is situated on the borderline between artist and ethnographer, geographer and sociologist, participant and observer in producing different ways of thinking about contested sites and engaging with collective struggles. Dr Judy Rabinowitz Price is a London based artist and filmmaker. From 2004-2014 she produced a number of single single-screen works and multiscreen installations focusing on Palestine. Her last film White Oil (2014-2017) focused on the quarries in the Occupied Palestinian Territories to unfold narratives around colonialism, expropriation of land and mobility through the day-to-day lives of the quarry owners, workers and security guards and has screened extensively. From 2008-2014 she was a visiting lecturer at the International Academy of Art, Palestine and initiated a series of student exchange programs between Palestine and UK institutions. She is currently course leader Photography (MA), Kingston University and senior lecturer in Moving Image (BA), University of Brighton.
