ARTIST TALK: Trauma and Performance in New Media Documentary
November 16, 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
529 W 20th St
Christina McPhee in conversation with GH Hovagimyan
Co-sponsored by Rhizome.org
At the multimedia exhibition of McPhee's "La Conchita mon amour " at
Sara Tecchia Roma New York, Christina McPhee and G.H. Hovagimyan will
reflect on performance, documentary and the construction of place in the
new media spectacle of human trauma in environmental disaster. "La
Conchita mon amour" is an ongoing site study of a beach town north of LA,
where residents have created a monument out of a lethal mudslide. McPhee
works across media in digital photography, video, drawing and the net at
sites where cultural and enviromental change collide. G. H. Hovagimyan is a
new media performance artist and curator whose video performances transform
the punk aesthetic of live rant into cultural critique on the web.
