    Fairy Tales and GlobalFest proudly present: Assume Nothing - Jan. 30th at The Plaza!

    DateMonday, January 18, 2010 at 10:31AM

    Fairy Tales and Globalfest proudly present an exclusive screening of: 

    Assume Nothing by Kirsty MacDonald
    (New Zealand, 2009)
    Alberta Premiere

    January 30th 2010
    at The Plaza - 1133 Kensington Rd NW
    screening begins at 9 PM



    Focusing on the art, photography and performances of five "alternative" gender artists of Maori, Samoan-Japanese, and Pakeha-European descent, Assume Nothing poses the questions: "What if "male" and "female" are not the only options? How do other genders express themselves through art?"

    Assume Nothing is inspired by acclaimed NZ photographer Rebecca Swan’s book “Assume Nothing”, which reveals an extraordinary diversity of gender identity from the Pacific region. Assume Nothing creates “living” portraits of four artists featured in Swan’s work, woven together by a portrait of Swan herself. The featured Maori, Samoan-Japanese, and Pakeha- European artists weave tales of growing up in gender identities that fall outside conventional Western definitions of masculinity and femininity.

    Meticulously crafted, playful and provocative, Assume Nothing travels from Wellington’s Red Rocks to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to explore the potent creative world that flourishes between and beyond genders.
