  • Time Goes By, So Slowly: Tina Takemoto's Queer Futurity
    ISSN: 2471-6839 Cite this article: Jenni Sorkin, “Time Goes By, So Slowly: Tina Takemoto’s Queer Futurity,” Panorama: Journal of the Association of Historians of American Art 7, no. 1 (Spring 2021), doi.org/10.24926 /24716839.11411. Time Goes By, So Slowly: Tina Takemoto’s Queer Futurity Jenni Sorkin, Associate Professor, University of California, Santa Barbara Tina Takemoto’s experimental films are infused with a historical consciousness that invokes the queer gaps within the state-sanctioned record of Asian American history. This essay examines Takemoto’s semi-narrative experimental film, Looking for Jiro (fig. 1), which offers complex encounters of queer futurity, remaking historical gaps into interstitial spaces that invite and establish queer existence through both imaginative and direct traces of representation. Its primary subject, Jiro Onuma (1904–1990), is a gay, Japanese-born, American man who was imprisoned at Topaz War Relocation Center in Millard County, Utah, during the mass incarceration of Japanese Americans by the United States government during World War II.1 Takemoto’s title, Looking for Jiro, alludes to Isaac Julien’s lyrical black-and-white 1989 film, Looking for Langston, which is a pioneering postmodern vision of queer futurity, reenvisioning the sophisticated, homosocial world of the Harlem Renaissance and its sexual and creative possibilities for writers such as poet Langston Hughes (1902–1967). Fig. 1. Tina Takemoto, film still from Looking for Jiro, 2011 Over a five-year period, Takemoto developed a speculative

  • Dear Sister Artist: Activating Feminist Art Letters and Ephemera in the Archive
    Article Dear Sister Artist: Activating Feminist Art Letters and Ephemera in the Archive Kathy Carbone ABSTRACT The 1970s Feminist Art movement continues to serve as fertile ground for contemporary feminist inquiry, knowledge sharing, and art practice. The CalArts Feminist Art Program (1971–1975) played an influential role in this movement and today, traces of the Feminist Art Program reside in the CalArts Institute Archives’ Feminist Art Materials Collection. Through a series of short interrelated archives stories, this paper explores some of the ways in which women responded to and engaged the Collection, especially a series of letters, for feminist projects at CalArts and the Women’s Art Library at Goldsmiths, University of London over the period of one year (2017–2018). The paper contemplates the archive as a conduit and locus for current day feminist identifications, meaning- making, exchange, and resistance and argues that activating and sharing—caring for—the archive’s feminist art histories is a crucial thing to be done: it is feminism-in-action that not only keeps this work on the table but it can also give strength and definition to being a feminist and an artist.

The California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) Feminist Art Program, which ran from 1971 through 1975, played an influential role in this movement and today, traces and remains of this pioneering program reside in the CalArts Institute Archives’ Feminist Art Materials Collection (henceforth the “Collection”).

  • WOMANHOUSE Intimacy, Identity and Domesticity
    WOMANHOUSE Intimacy, Identity and Domesticity Susana Solís-Zara1 University of Sevilha 1.

It presented and exhibited feminist artistic proposals concerning subjective identity, gender and intimacy like the ones found in domestic spaces. It includes perspectives such as the home as a space for both intimacy and identity, the body-house-home relationship, as- pects of maternity and the dichotomy between the private and the pub- lic, all of which continue to be narratives in contemporary women’s art. The main object of this essay is therefore to analyse the Woman- house project, as well as to examine some of its most prominent art- works and how intimacy was used as a means of expression, bringing - tion. It is precisely women who developed the notion of intimacy, as their role in history has been one of marginality and invisibility, being - WOMANHOUSE: Intimacy, Identity and Domesticity 299 2.
