Downtown-underground film icon Katrina del Mar will be showing a compilation of 40 minutes of shorts this Friday at Strange Loop Gallery. Del Mar’s body of work encompasses the Gang Girl Trilogy, a high octane-queer-action-romance series of buddy movies for the leather and beach set.
The series spans a decade of street queer culture, which captures a time in the East Village that may become a fleeting romance, as real estate sky-rockets and wall streeters invade in hopes of being hip.
Del Mar’s gang girl characters are culled from a queer community ala the Lower East Side in the 80–90’s before squatters, crack bums, midnight graffiti artists, and the no holds barred mentality had to move to Brooklyn.
