Film, Visual Art In(di)visible at Noble & Superior

- Tw Li's "Self (Involved) Portrait"
I saw a crowd of onlookers who ranged from scandalized to righteously indignant to cynically amused gather around TW Li's video installation Police Brutality Grid when it showed in September at Margin Gallery.
Li's video, photography and performance aggressively lampoon systems of control and the impact of technology on daily interaction. His work shows in Noble & Superior Projects' In(di)visible exhibition, which opens Friday 11/20.

Music, Visual Art, Post No Bills Postcards and Rugs by Mark Mothersbaugh

He's better known as front man for Devo and for his prolific work scoring TV shows and movies, but Mark Mothersbaugh is a visual artist as well. Back in 2005 I interviewed him about his music and about an exhibition of “corrected” antique photography he calls Beautiful Mutants that was happening at the time.

Film, Visual Art, Free Shit The Wall
Posted by Ed M. Koziarski on Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 10:15 AM
- "The Wall"
East German artist Jürgen Böttcher, also known as Strawalde, went to work for the state film production company DEFA after his paintings were ideologically blacklisted in the 1950s.
He captured the deconstruction of the Berlin Wall and the ghostly operations of disarmed border guards in his 1990 documentary The Wall, playing Thursday 11/12 as part of the the Goethe-Institut Chicago's free screening series Made Behind the Wall: Masterpieces of East German Cinema.
