Action-Adventure
Now till August 13th @ Canada Art Space (55 Chrystie St., NYC)-

Artist Jeremiah Clancy and Null Set Films editor Jan VanDamme screen “A Thing of Beauty Is A Joy Forever”.

Action Adventure is a group video show in the spirit of the Hollywood
Blockbuster. The major part of the project is a 90 minute-long curated
program of video exploring the influence of the movies in videos made by
artists. Cinema provides a momentary escape for billions of people from the
ordinary difficulties of their lives. It is a mass-produced language of
imagination and emotions universally understood in our culture. The artists
in Action Adventure harness elements of the movies to tap into this system.
They reuse, rearrange, or redeploy the ideas and strategies of Hollywood in
the service of art-making.
