    Tuesday, September 14, 2010, 18h
    MCA Theater, Free
    220 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611, USA

    As part of his UBS 12 x 12 artist's talk, Ben Russell presents films from his past curated programs in order to expand on themes that lie within his newest work, Trypps #7 (Badlands). "From early cinema to psychedelic mind-melt, ethnographic study to hand-processed portrait, and occult attraction to aquatic flicker film, this is a media map of analog influence that locates curatorial practice as a critical component to art-making today." - Ben Russell

    About Media (Anthony Ramos, 1977)Light Industry: Anthony Ramos - About Media
    Tuesday, September 14, 2010, 19:30h, 7$
    177 Livingston Street, Brooklyn, NY, USA

    Presented with Electronic Arts Intermix

    EAI is pleased to present a special screening and conversation with pioneering media artist Anthony Ramos at Light Industry.

    Ramos belonged to the first generation of artists who used video as a tool to critique mass media, give voice to marginalized individuals and communities, and produce radically new forms of cultural documentation, combining art and activism in a series of potent but now rarely seen works.

    His 1977 video About Media is an astute deconstruction of television news, focusing on the media coverage of President Jimmy Carter's declaration of amnesty for Vietnam War draft evaders as well as an interview conducted by New York reporter Gabe Pressman about Ramos's own eighteen-month prison term for conscientious objection. Through repetition and juxtaposition, he contrasts the unedited interview footage—and patronizing comments of the news crew—with Pressman's final televised report. In his ironic manipulation of the material, Ramos exposes the illusion of "objective" television news.

  • The Horse Hospital - Kerry Laitala: Mercurial Cinema

    By on

    Hallowed (Kerry Laitala, 2002)The Horse Hospital - Kerry Laitala: Mercurial Cinema
    Friday September 24, doors 19:30h, £5
    The Horse Hospital
    Colonnade, Bloomsbury, London WC1N 1JD, UK

    San Francisco filmmaker Kerry Laitala is a gem of the cinematic underworld. Her long engagement with the avant garde processes of cinema position her as one of the most informed process-based artists workingwithin the medium. Harnessing glimmering, fluorescing light, macabre artefacts and an array of abandoned filmic devices and conventions, her films are a deep transgression into the al/chemical side of cinema. The films of Kerry Laitala evoke a glowing world in which spirits, memories and mouldering and artefacts swirl into feverish dreams recalling gothic conditions of poetry and decay. Seeming to hover on the borders of life and death, madness and sanity, these haunting alchemical films raise the dead from long slumbers to become luminous phantoms of flickering cinema.– Steve Polta, SF Cinematheque “Kerry Laitala takes eye-popping visual phenomena and turns it into refined artistry, in a body of work that is playful, visually articulate and a loving homage to the fundamental magic of cinema.”

    Secret History of the Dividing Line, A True Account in Nine Parts (Parts I-IV)
    David Gatten, 16mm, 1999-2004, 97 mins

    Presented with Triple Canopy as part of the Brooklyn Book Festival.

    David Gatten's ambitious 16mm cycle Secret History of the Dividing Line attempts a rare feat, an investigation of the borders between word and image influenced equally by Stan Brakhage and Ludwig Wittgenstein (both veterans of related pursuits). The results are formidable: Of a planned nine, Parts I through IV currently run 97 minutes, yet indeed feel like the finely constructed beginnings of a grander architecture still to come. Gatten draws from the massive library of colonial Virginia gentleman William Byrd II, with occasional dips into his daughter Evelyn's journals, producing artfully composed typographies that suss out an invisible web of connections and epiphanies. But Gatten also expresses the indigestible bulk of history's verbiage through a mobile concrete poetry. Not all his quotes allow for reading; some words flutter past too quickly to serve as more than compositional elements, while others appear in negative, close-up and grainy, like luminous alphabetic windows. Attempting to glimpse a lost world recorded through texts, Gatten offers the paper-thin screen between past and present as just one of his project's ultimately ineffable dividing lines.

    - Secret History of the Dividing Line (16mm, 24fps, 20 mins, 2002)
    - The Great Art of Knowing (16mm, 24fps, 37 mins, 2004)
    - Moxon’s Mechanick Exercises or The Doctrine of Handy-Works Applied to the Art of Printing (16mm, 18fps, 26 mins, 1999)
    - The Enjoyment of Reading (16mm, 18fps, 16 mins, 2001)
