Within this collection are stories of labor struggles, body politics, sex work, liberation movements, spirituality and religion, and sexuality, which, when considered together, form a snapshot of a fertile era for independent productions by and for women, just one locus of which is Varda\u2019s vibrant, activist oeuvre.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Jan 13 \u2060\u2013\u2060 Feb 25, 2023<br \/><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.academymuseum.org\/en\/programs\/series\/enter-the-vardaverse-los-angeles-countercultures-1968-1981\">Enter the VardaVerse: Los Angeles Countercultures 1968-1981<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Though filmmaker Agn\u00e8s Varda (1928-2019) made some of her first films in France, she followed her husband Jacques Demy to Hollywood in the late 1960s and adopted California as a second home.

Working vigorously and spiritedly until her death at age 90 in 2019, Varda directed some two dozen features and almost as many short films, adapting her style to fit her ever-evolving curiosities and interests over her seven-decade career. Though she made her first four narrative films in France, she followed her beloved husband Jacques Demy to Hollywood in the late 1960s and adopted California as a second home, making three feature films and three shorts there within a 12-year period.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her time in the Golden State was clearly inspired by the countercultural scenes that evolved from the bevy of artists, musicians, and New Hollywood filmmakers that comprised the zeitgeist of this fertile period in visual art in Southern California.
