Information
Zoë Lund is a portrait-exhibition featuring the personal archives and films of the late actress, model, director, poet, activist, and screenwriter. An icon of the 1980s Lower Manhattan, whose aesthetics borrow from both the Cinema of Transgression and the abrasive punk and no-wave movement, Lund (1962-1999) was hampered by a fundamentally patriarchal film milieu often reducing her to an eroticized vamp and dashing her hopes of becoming a director. This exhibition aims to present Zoë Lund as an author and main character, one who cannot be limited to the underground or B-movie supporting role to which she is sometimes confined. First shown at Haus N Athens in November 2023, and travelling from Athens to Paris, Zoë Lund is a transient portrait of this multi-faceted personage, curated by Kevin Blinderman, Pierre-Alexandre Mateos and Charles Teyssou with the participation of Cédric Rivrain. The exhibition also carries the recent publication of Zoë Lund’s poems translated to French and co-edited by Stéphanie La Cava and Manon Lutanie in 2023 (Zoë Lund : Poems, Éditions Lutanie & Small Press).
