Ulrike Ottinger: Film, Art and the Ethnographic Imagination | Goethe-Institut Glasgow
Dec 10, 2024 (UTC+0)
Glasgow
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.
About Ulrike Ottinger: Film, Art and the Ethnographic Imagination by Angela McRobbie
Angela McRobbie is author of Ulrike Ottinger: Film, Art and the Ethnographic Imagination , the first English language collection of articles about the renowned german artist. The book comprises 19 chapters written by scholars from the UK, the US, Germany and Korea. It also comprises interviews with four of Ottinger’s team. The publication of this work has been welcomed by many within film studies, German studies, visual culture and feminist cultural studies. Authors are Patricia White, Gertrud Koch, Katherina Sykora, Angela McRobbie, Esther Leslie, Mandy Merck, Erica Carter, Hyojin Yoon, Tim Bergfelder, Cassandra Guan, Laurence Rickels, Adrian Rifkin, Dominic Paterson, Nora Alter and Thomas Love.

The library space provides tea, coffee, water, a variety of lighting and seating options, dyslexia reading aids, toys for children, and comfort provisions like soft cushioning, hot water bottles, blankets and space heaters. We understand that people spending time in the library might need to rest for a number of reasons; if you need to lie down on any of our benches or recline in one of our chairs, please feel free to do so. Our staff will do what we can to make you more comfortable. All service dogs, and dogs in general, are welcome as long as they are on a lead. There is free parking on the street outside the Library, but unfortunately there isn’t a specific reserved space for visitors with mobility issues. Please note that Queens Park train station is currently not wheelchair accessible. The closest wheelchair accessible station is Mount Florida Station, which is about 0.7 mile (1.1 km) from the Library. There is level access from nearby bus stops on Victoria Road. We run a full programme of events and activities around the year which means the library can be busy at times. On any day that the library is open there will be a dedicated quiet space. Stim toys are also provided. If you are looking for a quieter day, we suggest getting in touch before visiting if you’d like to know if there’s anything on that day. All GZL activities will adhere to our safer spaces policy, which you can learn about by visiting this link. If you need help accessing the library, or would like more information about access, please contact glasgowzinelibrary@gmail.com (or via phone: 07935992888) and we will be happy to offer assistance.
