On April 23, 2010 I attended a series of gallery openings at 424 Findlay and saw some fascinating contemporary art by local artists Mark Patsfall, Terence Hammonds, and Brian Joiner, in addition to the fabulous and diverse collection at the Solway Gallery.
One work that I couldn't get out of my head was Mark Patsfall's video installation Analog Requiem (2010) at Aisle Gallery. Patsfall, who worked with video artist Nam Jun Paik, has a long artistic relationship with television. So I grabbed a camera crew from WCET Connect and sat Mark down to talk about this piece which explores how we relate to events in our national history and social consciousness through television. Check out the video interview and photos.
