USA: Oye! Times readers Get FREE $30 to spend on Amazon, Walmart…This Is Not a Dream Screening: British Doc on ’70s Video Art
REDCAT: Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater (Los Angeles, CA)
Premiering here for the first time in the U.S., this 2012 British documentary by Ben Walters and Gavin Butt chronicles the rise of the video-making revolution in the 1970s, and how it transformed queer art and artists — who now had access to readily available and inexpensive equipment — by giving them a creative, effective means of responding to mass culture, as well as creating a connection with other voices of protest. Among the artists interviewed are Vaginal Davis, Nao Bustamante, Kalup Linzy, David Hoyle, Cole Escola and Holestar.
