Whole Grain online: “with it which it as it if it is to be, Part II”
In an online version of the screening series, “Whole Grain: Experiments in Film and Video,” the Tang presents a limited-access presentation of Eve Fowler’s “with it which it as it if it is to be, Part II” (2019) in conjunction with the exhibition “Never Done: 100 Years of Women in Politics and Beyond.” Fowler’s video is the second installment in her planned 10-part video series that explores the working practices of women artists in their later years of their career, in their studios and interacting with their art. The video will be available for streaming on the Tang website through Feb. 7. For more information, contact Tom Yoshikami.
Silver the Void online
The Tang has just released a special recording of a commissioned performance by Silver the Void in the installation “Nicole Cherubini: Shaking the Trees.” Silver the Void is an improvisational music/art project of artist Susan Jennings, who makes sculptures and plays those sculptures with her husband and daughter. For the performance, Jennings added Cherubini's son, Malachi Cherubini Purcell, on harp. Watch the video on the “Shaking the Trees” exhibition webpage. For more information, contact Michael Janairo.
