THE HERETICS is a feature-length experimental documentary film about the Women’s Art Movement of the 1970s, specifically the Heresies Collective.  Director Joan Braderman, a founding member of Heresies, has reunited Collective members to share their story through radical collage.

Lucy Lippard Reads from HERESIES #1

Published between 1977-1992, HERESIES: A Feminist Publication on Art and Politics documents the Collective’s pioneering thought, including original material from Lucy Lippard, Su Friedrich, and many more.  A PDF archive of the Collective’s writings can be found on the film’s website.

Thanks, Joan!
