Goldsmiths faculty Chris Wright and Julia Ng will join Richard Baxstrom (author of 'Realizing the Witch: Science, Cinema and the Mastery of the Invisible') in conversation.
In their new book 'Realizing the Witch' (Fordham University Press), Richard Baxstrom and Todd Meyers show how 'Haxan' opens a window onto wider debates in the 1920s regarding the relationship of film to scientific evidence, the evolving study of religion from historical and anthropological perspectives, and the complex relations between popular culture, artistic expression, and concepts in medicine and psychology. Goldsmith faculty Chris Wright and Julia Ng will join author Richard Baxstrom in a roundtable discussion on the underrated importance of 'Haxan' within the canons of classic cinema and the relation of the invisible to that which we moderns cannot prove but nevertheless 'know' to be there.
