Filmography: “Through the Repellent Fence”

September 21, 2018 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Free and open to the public.

Art goes to the movies with 21c Oklahoma City’s Filmography, a free monthly film series at 21c Oklahoma City in partnership with deadCenter Film and the OKC Film Society. Filmography takes place on the third Friday of each month.

Join us in September for a screening of Through the Repellent Fence, which follows art collective Postcommodity as they strive to construct Repellent Fence, a two-mile-long outdoor artwork that straddles the U.S.-Mexico border. Postcommodity consists of three Native Amertwo-mile-long who “put land art in a tribal context.” Aided by the communities on both sides of the border in 2015 the artists installed a series of 28 huge inflatable spheres emblazoned with an insignia known as the “open eye” that has existed in Indigenous cultures from South America to Canada for thousands of years. The spheres were evenly spaced apart and extended north and south of the border a mile in each direction. “It’s a metaphorical suture stitching together cultures that have inhabited these lands long before borders were drawn.”

Pro Tip: Get to September’s film early, because not only will you get to pick the best seat in the house, but early arrivals will receive a cocktail paid for by Downtown OKC Partnership.
