Screenings

Benning, Kobayashi and Linzy

Three contemporary video artists present their ludic world of genre-based performance. The frank, stark work of a very young Sadie Benning uses the camera as a mirror to draw us into a solitary world of identity and desire. Linzy acts and directs his own video performances, using the formal principles of the photonovel to satirise his artistic-sexed setting. Alison S. M. +Kobayashi, a young Canadian of Asian extraction, personified a multiplicity of identities as a criticism of the essentialist discourses of genre, class and ethnic group.
