Barbara Hammer- ART CART Oral Histories
The theme of the oral history is “Challenges: Youth and Age.”
We focused on exploring the evolution of Barbara Hammer as she experiences life and new challenges. In her youth Barbara reflects on her upbringing and memories with her grandma. In her age, Barbara discusses her battle with ovarian cancer. She makes connections between her health condition and her art, and how the cancer has impacted her both as an individual and an artist. Hammer also discusses plans for the future and in terms of her career, personal life, and tackling new challenges. The oral history exemplifies Barbara Hammer’s positive attitude, courage, and resilience
Vanguarda como margem e margem como vanguarda: um olhar sobre o cinema experimental de barbara hammer
This work aims to examine the life and work of Barbara Hammer, an experimental filmmaker and a queer cinema pioneer, who had a strong feminist and lesbian discursive appeal, examining, through film analysis and historiographical information each phase of her five decades of production. The conceptual exploration used in the analysis will start from the recovering of the cinematographic language experimentation from the beginning of cinema as an apparatus, in the Early Cinema, passing through the European avant-garde movements of 1920’s and, finally, the North American experimental cinema context which Barbara Hammer inserts herself.Este trabalho pretende se debruçar sobre a vida e obra de Barbara Hammer, cineasta experimental e pioneira do cinema queer, de forte apelo discursivo feminista e lésbico, examinando, por meio de análises fílmicas e informações historiográficas, cada fase de suas cinco décadas de produção.

Barbara Hammer: Nitrate Kisses
Double Strength ingår i samlingen Dyketactics.
“Hammer’s films of the ’70’s are the first made by an openly lesbian American filmmaker to explore lesbian identity, desire and sexuality though avant-garde strategies. Merging the physicality of the female body with that of the film medium, Hammer’s films remain memorable for their pioneering articulation of a lesbian aesthetic.” -Jenni Sorkin, WACK!

A Queer Approach to Illness in the Experimental Films of Barbara Hammer
Desde la década de los setenta, Barbara Hammer ha sido conocida por sus películas experimentales que narran y exploran la experiencia lésbica a través del cuerpo. En su extensa filmografía también se reconocen películas que abordan la enfermedad, el envejecimiento y la muerte. Especialmente, aquellas películas que quedan atravesadas por la epidemia del VIH en las décadas de los ochenta y noventa, y por su diagnóstico de cáncer ovárico en 2006. El siguiente artículo propone un análisis comparativo de seis películas de Hammer que exploran la enfermedad partiendo de un acercamiento fenomenológico y biopolítico a las imágenes que filma. Este artículo concluye que, a través de un cine somático, táctil, y kinestésico, Hammer establece una mirada queer, afectiva y terapéutica sobre el cuerpo enfermo, despatologizándolo y desinstrumentalizándolo en el medio cinematográfico.Since the 1970s, Barbara Hammer has been known for experimental films that recount and explore the lesbian experience through the body. Her extensive filmography also includes films that deal with illness, aging, and mortality. Especially notable are her films informed by the HIV epidemic in the 1980s and 1990s, and by her ovarian cancer diagnosis in 2006. This article offers a comparative analysis of six of Hammer’s films that explore illness, taking a phenomenological and biopolitical approach to the images she presents to the viewer. The article concludes that Hammer’s somatic, tactile, and kinesthetic filmmaking approach establishes an affective and therapeutic queer gaze on the diseased body, de-pathologizing and de-instrumentalizing it in the cinematic medium
