Julie Perini Exhibit - They Have Names for Girls Like Me - Jan. 31 - Feb. 17

The Lane Community College Art Gallery is proud to present the exhibition, They Have Names For Girls Like Me, by Portland artist Julie Perini. The exhibition is comprised of experimental video and film stills.

When asked to describe her work, Perini stated: The video explores ideas about cinematic identification, the history of representation of women in cinema, and notions of gender as performance. This piece constantly grows longer and is a different edit each time the work screens.

The show runs from January 31 to February 17th. A lecture will be held on Thursday, February 3rd at 3:00 pm with a reception immediately following from 4:00 – 5:00 pm. The lecture and reception are free and open to the public.
