Robin Maddock

Robin Maddock Work from LA Pong. “…When I got in touch with Maddock recently, I found out that he had spent two months earlier this year in California. “I don’t want to be that dark, gray, gothic English guy all my life,” he told me. “I need a bit of optimism and sunny California stuff.” […]

Bruce Conner

Bruce Conner Work from Mea Culpa. “Bruce Conner, legendary avant-garde films are well known for their pioneering use of found footage: mixing old newsreels, training, educational, and science films, cartoons, 16-mm condensed versions of Hollywood westerns and other kinds of B movies that were sold for home entertainment, he transformed and rearranged these images, pixelating some, […]

Amie Siegel

Amie Siegel Work from Black Moon. “The centerpiece of this three-part work is “Black Moon,” a partial remaking of Louis Malle’s 1975 film of the same title. A present-day science-fiction without dialogue, Siegel’s “Black Moon” traverses multiple film tropes – action, guns, lonely campfires, the end of the world – and, like its band of […]

Contrary to the visually pluralistic tendencies of other artists with mixed allegiances to Pop and Conceptual art as well […]

Isabella Rossellini

Isabella Rossellini Work from Green Porno. “When I first saw Blue Velvet back in 1986, I actually felt kind of bad for Isabella Rossellini. Her performance was brilliant, but I always suspected that she was the sole sane person in a cast and crew of perverts and sociopaths. Maybe she didn’t know exactly what she was […]

Mathieu Weschler

Mathieu Weschler Work from his The Trashmaster “The art of machinima is as old as id Software’s Quake, and popularized as a form by the popular Red vs. Blue Halo shorts… but we’re hard pressed to think of any machinima as bold, inventive or massive of scope as The Trashmaster, a feature-length machinima movie made […]

Liz Wendelbo

Liz Wendelbo Work from (primarily) Optiks. “Her filmmaking predicates resistance to cinema as a virtual medium – this resistance in film is what she refers to as Cold Cinema. It is a sentiment and a philosophy which places the artist in a position of resistance, akin to a soldier in a bunker, or Plato’s imaginary […]

Eric White

Stripped of any indication that we are viewing traditional color or black-and-white photographic images, we are instead left to read visual elements whose variables might […]
