“My life experiences would be defined as double knowledge: ‘Yes you can,’ ‘Don’t you dare.’ ‘Who the fuck do you think you are?’ ‘Ok, you can make films, but they’re not really films.’ ‘Ok, you can borrow my camera, but I think you’re going to bleed all over it.’” —Carolee Schneemann
One last video in our remembrances of Carolee Schneemann, who passed away March 6 at the age of 79. The good folks at Nowness recently released this profile of the always delightful and brilliant Schneemann – her last recorded interview, made earlier this year by director Clara Cullen. In this video – part of Nowness’s great Raw Materials series – Schneemann talks about the materials that she finds around her that inspire her work. Spoiler alert: cats are involved.
