Jew Lo From the Block

CONTENT WARNING:
A short film that is a colorful parody of the pop song and video by Jennifer Lopez. While Lopez belts out that although glittering with fame, she will always be a humble product of her South Bronx upbringing, the concept for Jew Lo emerged when Brynn Gelbard, the director, was not allowed to have her domestic partner of seven years stand by her side in family photos at her brother's wedding. Raised on Long Island in a Jewish family (just like her alter ego, Jew Lo) Gelbard humorously ensures that no closet door will ever be closed on her again!

Assume Nothing

FREE

Sat, May 08 @ 2:00 pm
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
in person
Many of us assume that there are only two genders and that being female or male follows from the sex of our biological bodies. Focusing on the art, photography and performances of four "alternative" gender artists 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 takes its title from the work of renowned NZ photographer Rebecca Swan's book "Assume Nothing" (2004), which reveals an extraordinary diversity of gender identity from the Pacific region and beyond. Assume Nothing creates "living" portraits of four artists featured in Swan's work, woven together by a portrait of Swan herself as an artist, blurring the conventions of documentary, animation, drama and gender in the process
In a South Pacific nation comprised of many cultures, the diversity that comprises the transgender worldwide family is captured by the artistry of Rebecca Swan. The New Zealand photographer combines parallel artistic, activist and gender transformative processes in her work. Swan’s personal and spiritual connection to the gender variant talent makes each photograph more of a progression than an image. Assume Nothing delves deeper into those represented in Swan’s artwork as she collaborates with individuals who are given control over their representation. (Description courtesy of Frameline 2009.)
