1996 VIDEO SCREENING
From left to right, video artists, Bob Doyle, Walter Wright, Carol Goss
and Peer Bode, present
their video art and that of other artists including Doris Chase, Andrew Deustche,
Pamela Hawkins, and others. The work is not scheduled. The artists
take turns, vying for the VCR slot, deciding what to screen next in a "call
and response" format. All the while discussing the work and taking
questions from the audience.
The work screened represents abstract and non-narrative video art from
the early 1970s to the present, including experimental work on early analog
synthesizers through computer animation.
It is resolved after the 5 1/2 screening that live video performance should
be added next year.
"There's nothing more subversive than showing abstract video art
on broadcast television." commented Carol Goss, while previewing excerpts
from the screening
at the day long media and community activism conference which preceeded Not
Still Art.
"Right on!", retorted Greg Bowman, director of the national
cable TV series OffLine.
The first Not Still Art screening was produced by Carol Goss and funded by a Presentation Funds Grant from the Experimental Television Center, which is funded in part by the New York State Council on the Arts.
