TONIGHT: REDCAT Presents 2 Films by Sharon Lockhart


Hello All!

Head over to the famed REDCAT Theater tonight for a screening of 2 films by visual artist Sharon Lockhart, "Lunch Break" (80 minutes) and "Exit" (41 minutes). Ms. Lockhart will also be in attendance.

"Lunch Break" - Following the seemingly mundane routine of shipyard workers during their lunch break, the eponymous first film exudes a gritty realism that belies its voyeuristic undertones. In one extended tracking shot, "Lunch Break" temporarily erases any inherent classism between the audience and the subjects onscreen, bringing in the viewer to experience the Bath Iron Works firsthand. The camera goes from slow movement to no movement at all in

Exit- which uses a fixed shot to subvert the role between audience and camera, drawing on elements of early experimental cinema
