Join us for an evening dedicated to the work of Ulrike Ottinger. We will be screening Ottinger's experimental feature film Ticket of No Return (1979), followed by a conversation led by Angela McRobbie and Dominic Paterson. Ticket of No Return (1979) Bildnis einer Trinkerin (Ticket of No Return) 1979 marks the start of Ottinger’s Berlin trilogy of feature films. With a queer-punk and fashion sensibility it centres round the ‘flaneur’ figure of an unnamed ‘Madame’ played by Tabea Blumenschein who is dressed extravagantly as she embarks on a drinking tour of the city. The film brings an intoxicated gaze to many of the divided city’s disreputable spaces, working class pubs, lesbian bars, a dingy skating rink, railway sidings, canal-side locations and a sleazy casino. Fashion, sculpture and architecture enter into a choreographic encounter while Ottinger also memorialises now out-of-use but seminal spaces such as the remarkable Tegel Airport where the film opens. About Ulrike Ottinger Ulrike Ottinger's work spans over 50 years. She began work as a painter training in Paris in the early 60s, a period that is vividly accounted for in her most recent film Paris Calligrammes (2020). From 1970 Ottinger returned to Germany, first to Constance where she had grown up and then to Berlin where she has now lived since 1973. With this move there was a shift in her work towards film-making and she has continued to make feature films of the queer avant-garde alongside experimental ethnographic films from her times and commissions in Japan, Korea, China and Mongolia. Her photographic as well as sculptural work and object-based installations have been shown in exhibitions internationally. Ottinger lives and works in Berlin.
