Free Screening + Talk: Ceija Stojka: Making Visible at Anthology Film Archives
March 12, 2026, 7:00pm – 9:00pm
Please note this event will take place at Anthology Film Archives, 32 2nd Ave, New York, NY 10003
Join us at Anthology Film Archives for a screening of Austrian filmmaker, writer and researcher Karin Berger’s 1999 documentary Ceija Stojka. Presented on the occasion of The Drawing Center’s exhibition Ceija Stojka: Making Visible, on view February 19 through June 7, 2026, the film explores the fullness of Stojka’s production as a visual artist, centered in her Roma life and heritage. Spurred by the resurgence of extreme right nationalism in Austria and abroad, and by her experiences as a Holocaust survivor, Stojka created works of profound beauty and horror that resonate today in strikingly contemporary terms.
The screening will be followed by a conversation and Q+A between Berger and Swedish documentary filmmaker, author, and journalist Lawen Mohtadi.
