INDISCRETIONS
AVANT-GARDE FILM, VIDEO, & FEMINISM
MELLENCAMP, PATRICIA
Indiscretions follows the path of U.S. avant-garde film and video from the underground of the 1960s to the academy of the 1980s. Patricia Mellencamp creates a dialogue among theory, popular culture, and politics through inventive renderings of the films of Owen Land, Hollis Frampton, Ken Jacobs, Bruce Conner, Robert Nelson, Michael Snow, Yvonne Rainer, and Sally Potter, and videotapes by Ant Farm, TVTV, Michael Smith, William Wegman, and Cecelia Condit.
