Watch: Frieze x MUBI
For our Summer Sessions, Frieze has partnered with MUBI to present a series of artist conversations celebrating and debating contemporary classic films.
In the third of the Summer Sessions, writer and poet Dodie Bellamy will talk about Christian Petzold's Yella. Petzold is the subject of a world wide MUBI retrospective in August.
Frieze members can sign up here for an extended, three-month MUBI trial to watch the film ahead of the conversation, which will be broadcast live on Zoom.
If you’d like to receive a transcript of this live talk after the event, kindly contact events@frieze.com
Dodie Bellamy’s writing focuses on sexuality, politics and narrative experimentation, challenging the distinctions between fiction, the essay and poetry. In 2018-19 she was the subject of On Our Mind, a yearlong series of pubic events, commissioned essays and reading-group meetings organized by CCA Wattis ICA. In October, 2021 Semiotext(e) will publish Bee Reaved, a essay/memoir collection circling around grief, loss and abandonment; and a new edition of her 1998 PoMo vampire novel The Letters of Mina Harker. With Kevin Killian, she co-edited Writers Who Love Too Much: New Narrative 1977-1997 (Nightboat Books, 2017).
Andrew Durbin is the editor of frieze magazine. He is the author of the novels MacArthur Park (2017) and Skyland (2020), both from Nightboat Books. He lives in London, UK
