Through multi-screen film-environments and poetic live interventions, he continues to articulate new possibilities for experiencing light in time.

Branden Joseph "The Roh and the Cooked: Structural Film, Actionism, Paracinema"
6 June 2010, Institute of Modern Art, Brisbane

"The Roh and the Cooked: Structural Film, Actionism, Paracinema" Branden W. Joseph will discuss the travels of Tony Conrad and Beverly Grant throughout Europe in the early 1970s. Their itinerary, and the transformations in Conrad’s work upon his return to the United States, sheds light on the particular "crisis" of experimental cinema at the time and the manner in which it was (temporarily) overcome. Revising current understandings of the notion of there being "two avant-gardes" (as Peter Wollen famously put it), an examination of Conrad’s development and his interactions with Malcolm Le Grice, Wilhelm and Birgit Hein, and Otto Muehl will outline another line of avant-garde development. Drawn from Conrad’s personal archives and other research, this talk covers material that is not included in the author’s recent book, Beyond the Dream Syndicate: Tony Conrad and the Arts after Cage. read more...
