Art Meets Film: You can go now (Richard Bell)

About

A look at the life and provocative work and writings of first nations artist, Richard Bell. It reveals the ‘two Richards’ – ‘Richie’ the provocateur and enfante terrible of the art world who challenges its whiteness and the Richard who spent his childhood living in a tin shed, learnt his politics on the streets of Redfern and is known in his own community as an activist. His polemics and creative outputs provide a lens through which to consider the last 50 years of First Nations activism in Australia and its links to global protest movements.

Art Meets Film by the Riddoch is an art-related film screening series held on the 2nd Thursday of each month. Doors open at 5:30pm. Complimentary snacks are provided, and bar service available. Ages 18+

Tickets cost $10 each, or $8 for Mount Gambier Reels Film Society members.
