August 29 - August 29,2020
An online film screening event from Ballroom Marfa. To RSVP, go here. From Ballroom Marfa: "AFI 2020 screenings continue on Ballroom's Film Channel with two films, followed by a Q+A via Zoom with artist Lisa Tan and Ballroom curator Daisy Nam. Rhea Storr, Junkanoo Talk, 2017, (12 mins.) The film seeks a near forensic way of looking at Junkanoo, a carnival in the Bahamas, yet the viewer is denied the full picture. Selected by Whitechapel Gallery, London, United Kingdom. Lisa Tan, My Pictures of You, 2017-19 (23 mins.) The striking familiarity of images of Mars transports the artist to the desert terrain of the Southwest, including West Texas. Questions of climate, extinction, and the meaning of photographic images, arise. Selected by Bonniers Konsthall, Stockholm, Sweden."
