Frameworkers,
Monday greetings - I missed the screening announcements this week,
but there's a 3-day series in Chicago that shouldn't be missed...
Details are below.

"Liar Lies: Contemporary Performance for the Camera"
DePaul Art Museum
2350 N. Kenmore Avenue, Chicago, Tel: 773-325-7506
April 24, 25, 26
6-7:30 pm
What is gained and lost when a performance is given for a live
audience versus for the camera? When a performance is abstracted and
quantified in recordable media, how does it affect the creative
process and its reception? How does one draw the line between acting
and non-acting, affectation and earnestness for the camera?
Contemporary performance art ranges from highly personal concerns to
broad social and political issues, from the spontaneous to rigorously
scripted and choreographed pieces. A series of video and film
performances by artists in the United States, Finland, France,
Germany, and the United Kingdom will be followed by informal discussion.
Curated by Chi-Jang Yin, assistant professor of Media Arts of the Art
and Art History Department at DePaul University
