Often dismissed as gratuitous or artistically empty, gore remains one of horror cinema’s most contested pleasures. This lecture reframes gore as an aesthetic practice rooted in tactility, craft, and collaboration. Tracing the devaluation of gore films and their fandoms, it situates graphic violence within broader artistic traditions and examines practical effects as a form of resistance to digital smoothness.
An evening that moves between embodied rhythm, disembodied choreography, and live improvisation, featuring The Drum Also Dances and Breath Quartet
