Tonight: Screening and Talk with Filmmaker Jem Cohen

I first came upon filmmaker Jem Cohen (wiki) (Video Data Bank) in a 2002 show at EYEBEAM. He was showing Chain, a new three channel piece shot in 16mm film, with a fantastic soundtrack by Godspeed You Black Emperor. The film washes the viewer with images in a Koyaanisqatsi (wiki) style and I remember his film being the highlight of that show so It will be interesting to see him talk tonight.

Interesting new blog How's My Dealing? is a place for Artists to share their positive/negative experiences with critics, curators, and galleries. There aren't too many comments so far and some of the comments a bit on the whiny chip on my shoulder side but this experiment could be quite interesting and telling if the right people find it and start posting constructive comments. With enough support it could turn into a Epinions for the art world.
