e-flux announces release of ‘Still I Rise: Feminisms, Gender, Resistance, Act 1, a VR Interpretation’
Developed by V21 Artspace in partnership with Nottingham Contemporary. Still I Rise explores the history of resistance and alternative forms of living from the perspective of gender.
Coinciding with their 10th birthday on November 14, 2019, Nottingham Contemporary have released an enhanced virtual reality experience of their exhibition, Still I Rise: Feminisms, Gender, Resistance, Act 1 (2018–19). Still I Rise explores the history of resistance and alternative forms of living from the perspective of gender. With over 100 exhibits by some 50 practitioners, Still I Rise looks at resistance globally, from intimate acts to large-scale uprisings, from the late 19th century to the present and beyond. Nottingham Contemporary’s fully 3D-rendered, interactive interpretation of Still I Rise extends the exhibition’s aim to broaden discussions around gender and resistance, and to represent international perspectives. The VR experience was developed by V21 Artspace as part of a research and development programme supported by The Space.
