Doors 7:30 pm; $5 admission The New Works Salons series is a casual forum for the presentation and discussion of new works in film, video, sound, and performance, with local and visiting artists often in-person to introduce their work. This, the forty-ninth program in the series, will feature work by Susanna Battin, Ross Lipman, John Story, Walter Vargas and possibly one or two other surprises. John Story will show his work The Depoliticization of Black Cinema: Part One, from an ongoing video essay series analyzing films by and about African Americans. Ross Lipman will show Billy and Charles, in which Billy Woodberry recounts his collaboration with Charles Burnett on the making of his classic film Bless Their Little Hearts. Walter Vargas will show a new work titled The Rose, Rows, and Rues of Pleasure: “things that happen in any space over the stretched canvas of time.” Susanna Battin will show some recent video work, and we may have one or two surprise treats as well.
