Ulrike Ottinger at 80: In Conversation

In June 2022, Ulrike Ottinger turned 80. To celebrate this occasion and to mark the handing over of a new book in English entitled Ulrike Ottinger: Film, Art and the Ethnographic Imagination to the publisher (Berghahn) in September 2022, we welcomed director Ulrike Ottinger for an online conversation with renowned film theorist Mandy Merck. The conversation was also joined by Angela McRobbie, a long-standing advocate of Ottinger’s work and the book’s editor. Taking Ottinger’s autobiographical Paris Caligrammes, as the point of departure they talked about Ottinger’s career, influences, and interests. One member of the audience asked Ulrike Ottinger whether there was an autobiography by another artist that inspired her. To this, the filmmaker responded that she had to think about it. And so she did. A few days later she sent us her answer: The Autobiographie Of Alice B. Toklas by Gertrude Stein, a book, of course, that is very much a portrait of the arts scene in Paris in the early 20th century. Mandy Merck is an Emerita Professor of Media Arts at Royal Holloway, University of London. Her latest book is Cinema’s Melodramatic Celebrity (BFI Bloomsbury 2022). Her next book is Downsizing: The Miniature on Film. Angela McRobbie is a Fellow of the British Academy and Professor Emeritus at Goldsmiths University of London. McRobbie is the editor of and contributor to Ulrike Ottinger: Film, Art and the Ethnographic Imagination to be published by Berghahn in 2023. Her most recent books in sociology and feminist cultural studies are Fashion as Creative Economy (With Dan Strutt and Carolina Bandinelli, (Polity, November 2022)), Feminism and the Politics of Resilience (Polity 2020) and Be Creative (Polity 2016). She lives in London and Berlin.
