On the occasion of the recent publication of Telling Invents Told, a live reading and in-conversation with Lis Rhodes, Aura Satz and the book’s editor María Palacios Cruz. Lis Rhodes and Aura Satz will also present a new collaborative piece.
Telling Invents Told (The Visible Press, 2019) is the first collection of writings by artist and filmmaker Lis Rhodes. It includes the influential essay Whose History? alongside texts from works such as Light Reading, Pictures on Pink Paper and A Cold Draft, together with new and previously unpublished materials. Rhodes’ writing addresses urgent political issues — from the refugee crisis to workers’ rights, police brutality, racial discrimination and homelessness — as well as film his- tory and theory, from a feminist perspective.
