Tracking the Thrill, Gretchen Bender
Recalling the work of the late artist, The Kitchen will be hosting a carefully curated selection of Gretchen Bender's seminal videos including her 1987 piece,
Total Recall, as well as her various forays into music video and broadcast television production. Predicting today's age of total "image saturation," Bender critiqued pop culture by creating repetitive, aggressive, and almost hypnotic compilations of footage that truly made a mark when they premiered.
When: August 27-October 5
Where:
The Kitchen, 512 West 19th Street
