The video “SCUM Manifesto“ (1976) by Carole Roussopoulos and Delphine Seyrig, based on a text by Valerie Solanas of the same name, might be inspired by the urge to pay homage to the humorous and angry voice of someone who was incredibly disempowered.
Abused as a child, later becoming homeless, Solanas supported herself through begging and prostitution, writing “SCUM“ in 1967, shooting Andy Warhol in 1968, and subsequently spending much of her remaining life in jail and in psychiatric institutions before dying of pneumonia at age fifty-two, destitute and alone in a hospice.
Roussopoulos and Seyrig’s video is essentially a careful act, or an act of care - two women diligently reproducing the words of somebody who was out of print and whose voice needed to be heard. They are attentive to Solanas’s humor, to her rage, but also to the silencing to which she was subjected.
You can see the full video in the exhibition "Defiant Muses. Delphine Seyrig and the Feminist Video Collectives of 1970s and 1980s France“ until September 4 at Kunsthalle Wien.

Führung in Österreichischer Gebärdensprache
Eva Böhm und Wolfgang Brunner führen durch die Ausstellung "Widerständige Musen. Delphine Seyrig und die feministischen Videokollektive im Frankreich der 1970er- und 1980er-Jahre".
Die Schau erforscht die Überschneidung zwischen den Geschichten des Kinos, des Videos und des Feminismus: Sie beleuchtet ein Netzwerk kreativer und politischer Akteurinnen rund um die Schauspielerin, Videomacherin und Aktivistin Delphine Seyrig und entwirft so eine Geschichte des Feminismus als Mediengeschichte.
"Widerständige Musen", 7/4 2022 — 4/9 2022, Kunsthalle Wien Museumsquartier

Statement by Nicole Fernández Ferrer, director of the Centre Audiovisuel Simone de Beauvoir (@centresimonedebeauvoir ), in the context of the exhibition "Defiant Muses. Delphine Seyrig and the Feminist Video Collectives of 1970s and 1980s France".
The Centre Audiovisuel Simone de Beauvoir was created in 1982 by Carole Roussopoulos, Delphine Seyrig and Ioana Wieder. The feminist activists, all video practitioners, aimed their cameras at the preservation and creation of audiovisual documents concerning the history of women, their rights, fights and creations.
Closed in 1993 for mostly financial reasons, the center was reborn in 2003 with a new team and more general ambitions, including an educational dimension. It´s primary mission continues its creators’ aims: disseminate, preserve and add to the very rich audio-visual documents, mainly composed of videos involving the history of women, their battles and their creations.
"Defiant Muses. Delphine Seyrig and the Feminist Video Collectives of 1970s and 1980s France", 7/4 - 4/9 2022, Kunsthalle Wien Museumsquartier
