The Girl Who Knew Too Much

The Girl Who Knew Too Much explores the relationship between horror cinema and contemporary art. Named after the seminal 1963 Giallo thriller by Mario Bava, The Girl Who Knew Too Much is a mixture of philosophical readings, horror theory, and art criticism that maps out how horror and art share structural, conceptual, and aesthetic strategies. With a primary focus on artworks produced after Douglas Gordon’s 24-Hour Psycho (1993), this blog traces the profound influence of the horror film on contemporary artistic practice by posting curatorial research, thematic essays on art and film, exhibition and film reviews, relevant international events, videos, and links. Examples of international artists that have been featured include Fiona Banner, Josh Azzarella, Aida Ruilova, Peter Doig, Gary Simmons, Darren Banks, Jim Shaw, Marnie Weber, Joseph Beuys, Malcolm Le Grice, and Raed Yassin. Film discussions range from the magical theater of George Melies to the very recent The Cabin in the Woods.
