Disgraced Monuments

In Disgraced Monuments, filmmakers Laura Mulvey and Mark Lewis use rare archival footage and interviews with sculptors, art historians, and gallery and museum directors to examine the fate of Soviet-era monuments after the collapse of communism. (49 mins.)

Mulvey, author of the much-reprinted 1975 essay "Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema" and the book Fetishism and Curiosity (1996), teaches film theory at Birbeck College, University of London.
