Three film screenings, presented in conjunction with the exhibition Performance Now, on view at the Middlebury College Museum of Art. First is Regina José Galindo's ¿Quién Puede Borrar las Huellas? [Who can erase the traces?] (38 minutes, 2003), in which a young woman in a black dress walks barefoot through the streets of Guatemala City, leaving footprints of blood to invoke the spirits of thousands of victims of civil war. Next is Nandipha Mntambo's Ukungenisa (2 minutes, 30 seconds; 2003), described by the Stevenson Gallery as "the mental and physical preparation for a fight, and the opening of a path to allow something to happen." The last film is Claire Fontaine's Situations (35 minutes, 2011), a droll series of lessons on self-defense. Sponsored by the Middlebury College Museum of Art.
