2023. Dir: Larissa Behrendt. 80 min. Australia. M Coarse language and crude sexual humour. Courtesy: Madman Entertainment
You Can Go Now reveals the ‘two Richard Bells’ – ‘Richie’ the provocateur and enfante terrible of the art world who challenges its whiteness, and the Richard who spent his childhood living in a tin shed, learnt his politics on the streets of Redfern and is known in his own community as an activist.
Bell’s polemics and creative outputs provide a lens through which to consider the last 50 years of First Nations activism in Australia and its links to global protest movements.
Tickets: A limited number of complimentary tickets will be made available to registered AIDC 2023 delegates. If not at capacity, standby tickets may be available 30 mins prior to screening.
Tickets are also available to purchase through ACMI.
