A colleague and friend of Marija Gimbutas’ just gifted to us some wonderful new materials! The first couple of items are DVDs including:
- “The Goddess in Art”, a cable TV series produced and moderated by Starr Goode from 1985 to 1991, dedicated to the Goddess in Art, the oldest and most enduring tradition in art. These 2 interviews with Marija capture her spirit and wealth of knowledge. The first took place on Jan 31, 1987 and the second on February 10, 1988.
- Also we now have “Marija Gimbutas: Voice of the Goddess”, a documentary about the world premiere of The Civilization of the Goddess as well as additional interviews with Marija and friends/scholars. A moving portrait of one of the great figures of the 20th century. The documentary was produced by Lollie Rogers.
- Lastly, there is the CD recordings that cover the entire evening of the world premiere and book launch of The Civilization of the Goddess, produced by Starr Goode. It is said that Marija considered this the best talk she ever gave and that it was an ecstatic evening.
Later this year we will be announcing our Friends of Opus program, and as a friend you will have special digital access to Marija’s lecture from the comfort of your own home! Curious? Stay tuned and become a Friend of Opus when we launch the program, and support our work!
All these items are available for viewing and listening at Opus by making a research appointment. Visit our website for contact information.
Please keep me informed. Thank you.
