[ISEA2004] Paper: Kathy Rae Huffman – Faces

Abstract

FACES is an international mailing list that connects women: activists, artists, critics, theoreticians, technicians, journalists, researchers, programmers, net workers, web designers and educators, all women who share an interest in the media and communication arts. FACES started informally, and has continued since 1997 as a voluntary list, using free services, and continues because of a real need for women to connect internationally. Many local lists have been inspired by FACES, and projects at festivals, exhibitions and symposia have been created by list subscribers.

  • Kathy Rae Huffman (USA/UK) is director of visual arts at Cornerhouse, Greater Manchester’s centre of contemporary art and cinema, since 2002. She was formerly Director at Hull Time Based Arts, in East Yorkshire. Huffman is a curator and networker, and started FACES with a group of women around a dinner table in Vienna, in 1997.
