id=\"900am-630pm\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">9:00am &#8211; 6:30pm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This full-day bilingual symposium engages with historical and current controversies relating to sexual representation. &nbsp;Experts in the feminist pornography debates of the 80\u2019s and 90\u2019s will provide historical, cultural and legal context, and consider how those debates inform contemporary struggles over issues like \u2018sexting\u2019, \u2018revenge porn\u2019 and \u2018rape culture.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blending critical analysis with creative expression, the symposium also features artist-scholars who will offer performances and insight on the role of erotica as empowerment, pleasure and resistance. &nbsp;The day will conclude with a video-viewing and conversation with members of the Kiss &amp; Tell collective, whose sexually explicit photographic exhibition, <i>Drawing the Line,<\/i> made a key intervention into the Canadian sex wars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panelists include Brenda Cossman (University of Toronto), Karen Busby (University of Manitoba), Trish Salah (Queen\u2019s), Lara Karaian (Carleton University), Patricia Gentille (Carleton University), Lizard Jones (Kiss &amp; Tell), Susan Stewart (Kiss &amp; Tell), Tracy Bear (University of Alberta), Geraldine King (Queen&#8217;s) and Ummni Khan (Carleton University).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>This event is sponsored

Coombes, professor of Material and Visual Culture, in the of School of History of Art, Film and Visual Media, Birkbeck, University of London<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the Monument to the Women of South Africa was unveiled in Pretoria in August 2000, much was riding on the ability of the monument to invoke the presence and necessity of women for the country\u2019s past and for securing its success in the future.&nbsp; The Monument was designed to recall not only the crucial role played in the liberation struggle by women from all constituencies (and across class and colour lines) but also the ways in which such a past can work to enable a new vision of the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This lecture argued that while the conventional political terrain in South Africa appears to be stalling on delivering the fruits of a democratic process, a new space for effective political activism on the ground has been opened up by women makers and artists. The lecture explored some of the extraordinary projects which have effectively taken the initiative to transform complex social environments still blighted by the devastating legacy of the apartheid years and the economic and health challenges presented by years of official denialism in the face of the AIDS\/HIV pandemic. It argued that gender is a critical component in these art projects\u2019 success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>___________________________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong> &#8220;Where are we now?
