Mark Boulos - Screening of Recent Video Works

Mark Boulos will introduce and show five recent video works. Projection: Self-Portrait as My Psychoanalyst (3 minutes, 2015) is a documentary filmed during a psychoanalytic session. Antigone (15 minutes, 2014) is a three-screen cinema verité documentary about method actresses in Hollywood. Echo (6 minutes, 2013) is an interactive installation in which the viewer sees a three-dimensional mirror image of himself with his naked eye, against a background landscape where time is desynchronized and perspective broken. No Permanent Address (27 minutes, 2010) is a three-screen documentary about communist guerrillas in the Philippines. All That Is Solid Melts into Air (15 minutes, 2008) is a two-screen documentary about petroleum, contrasting the trade in oil futures at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange during the credit crisis, with the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, who battle against the oil corporations that colonize their land.

Boulos is the American Academy in Rome’s Rome Prize Fellow in Visual Arts.
