::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

WHEN: Monday, NOV 19, 7-9p
WHERE: ACT Cube, Wiesner Bldg, (E15-001), 20 Ames St, Cambridge

Ros Gray’s research focuses on revolutionary cinema and its global networks, the screen as a site of radical gathering, anti-colonial and post-colonial theory, and contemporary film and video art within the context of cinematographic traditions and different liberation movements on the African continent. Gray co-edited a special issue of the journal Third Text, “The Militant Image: A Ciné-Geography”, and has published articles in numerous scholarly and artistic publications. She explores similar themes in her forthcoming book The Vanguard of the World: Cinemas of the African Revolution. Gray is a Lecturer in Fine Art Practice at Goldsmith College London and research tutor in the Curating Contemporary Art program at the Royal College of Art.

This lecture is free and open to the public.
