‘Highlights’ is a program featuring five short works from the Filmform collection, curated by Erika Råberg in collaboration with HAIR CLUB and Kortfilmsdagen. Co-founded in 2014 by Suzanne Gold (US), Michal Lynn Shumate (US/IT), and Kelly Lloyd (US/UK), HAIR CLUB is an interdisciplinary, research-based art collective whose work puts forth a socially engaged art historical practice around the topic of hair in art and culture. This is the third and final event in a series as part of HAIR CLUB’s residency at Nordiska Konstförbundet (NKF) in Stockholm.
The program showcases an eclectic mix of film and video works from the past two decades. Hair makes an appearance in each: adorning legs, acting as icon and symbol, and serving as a portal to the presence of nonhuman animals. The works also explore varying approaches to the camera as recording device which – like hair – mediates relationships, from the intimate setting of the hair salon to the streets of Stockholm late at night.
