Chronicles and Other Things with Michel Auder
Sunday, March 13 at 7 pm
Ticket Price $6

Michel Auder's cinema verite-style video memoirs have simultaneously documented his personal domestic environment and that of the New York art world, from the glitterati of Andy Warhol's Factory in the late-1960s to today. In Auder's video diaries, life and art are not necessarily discrete entities, and are often intensely intertwined. His work functions as a form of visual autobiography, documenting the self in relation to others, while also bringing to attention the way technologies of representation mediate between individual and social histories.
