BAMPFA Indigenous Film Series Events: Films by New Red Order
Presented by BERKELEY ART MUSEUM & PACIFIC FILM ARCHIVE. Co-sponsored by BCNM.
This series is organized by Kathy Geritz and Natalia Brizuela and presented in conjunction with the UC Berkeley course Indigenous Arts in the Americas: Old and New Media, taught by Julia Bryan-Wilson, Natalia Brizuela, and Beth Piatote. The film programs and guests are made possible with support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
A public secret society consisting of Adam Khalil, Zack Khalil, and Jackson Polys, as well as a changing group of collaborators, New Red Order creates videos, performances, and exhibitions related to indigeneity. Using humor, reappropriation, and an array of forms of address and artistic strategies, New Red Order variously undermines traditional ethnography and creates alternative forms of documentary. Culture Capture: Crimes Against Reality uses varied technologies to transform historical monuments. The evolving Never Settle: The Program, seen in a sneak preview, takes the form of an initiation video into New Red Order. In A I O U, made in connection with Hito Steyerl’s exhibition Drill, victims of military violence from different time periods are brought back to life.
