WHAT THIS SERIES IS ABOUT: Feeling witchy this autumn? Join us for a series of special viewings of witchy movies and learn about the history of the iconic figure of the witch. Movie Witches is a three-night viewing series with talks on the cultural significance of the witch in visual media with art historian Sofie Bové, who specializes in images of the demonic female and the role of art in renaissance witch trials. Each night features an approx. 30-45 minute talk by Sofie Bové, who has explored and worked to spread knowledge of the cultural impact of the witch through lectures, courses, art and historical city walks through her company Nocturna. She works for The Hirschsprung Collection and The Nivaagaard Collection as an art historical educator. Each talk focus on a different witchy theme as we examine the historical witch, the villain witch and the power witch. Of course followed by a topical movie
WHAT THE TALK TONIGHT IS ABOUT: "THE VILLAINESS WITCH," Join us for a night in company with the witch as villainess. In tonight's presentation we take a closer look at 'the bad girl witches' of some of our favorite movies ... The fear of the witch is very old and we trace the origin of some of the most familiar trades of the witch back to ancient ideas of gender and magic in this night of devil women. We shall see how power and evil are linked in modern stories of witches that keep drawing lines back to Eve and that infamous forbidden fruit. From Willow in Buffy the Vampireslayer becoming too powerful and turning 'Witchbitch' or Marvels Scarlet Witch turning into a danger for the entire multiverse in her grief, the dangerous witch is still an integral part of pop culture. So wear black and practice your wicked cackle for a night in company with the villainess.
