SUMMARY:Art Creates Change with Ali Kazimi—Screening & Seminar
DESCRIPTION:\nFriday, 26 January 2024 | 15:30 to 21:00 EST | Auditorium Room 190, OCAD University, 100 McCaul Street, Toronto\nAli Kazimi is an award-winning filmmaker, writer and visual artist whose work deals with race, social justice, migration, history, memory and archives. His critically acclaimed films have been shown at festivals around the world, winning national and international honours and awards. His productions have been broadcast nationally and internationally. He is a Professor of Cinema and Media Arts at York University and a YCAR Faculty Associate.\nProfessor Kazimi will show two films—Shooting Indians (1997, 45 min) and Beyond Extinction (2022, 102 min)—works that deal with the perspective of Indigeneity through an immigrant lens. Moving beyond the White Settler/ Indigenous paradigm the films open up discussions about the relationships between racialized immigrant communities and Indigenous communities, while also addressing the legacies of colonialism. Respondents include Ryan Rice, Kajri Jain, Stephen Foster and Indu Vashist.\nThe second event in this series—Artist Talk—will take place on Thursday, 18 January 2024 from 18:30 to 21:30 EST. More information at this link ( https://yorku.ca/research/ycar/event/art-creates-change-ali-kazimi-talk-reception-18012024 ).\nArt Creates Change is a long-running lecture series, almost 20 years, sponsored by the Faculty of Art ( https://www.ocadu.ca/academics/faculty-of-art ) at OCAD University ( https://www.ocadu.ca/ ).

Yael, soJin Chun and Marton Robinson.\nThis event is part of the Kim Pruesse Speakers Series and co-sponsored by:\nGraduate Studies at OCAD U ( https://www.ocadu.ca/academics/graduate-studies )\nYork Centre for Asian Studies ( https://yorku.ca/research/ycar/ )\nCinema Studies Institute, UofT ( https://www.cinema.utoronto.ca/ )\nCentre for South Asian Studies, Asian Institute, UofT ( https://munkschool.utoronto.ca/ai/centre-south-asian-studies )\nThis event is open the public and wheelchair accessible.\nFor more information: madgeyao@ocadu.ca ( mailto:madgeyao@ocadu.ca )\n\n\n\n\n\n
