Hannah Wilke. Originally produced as a cable television program in 1978. "Cooper Gallery Installation & Global Documentary Festival & David Van Tieghem (percussionist) & Hannah Wilke Interview. 34'. [1978?]. This is unedited black & white footage of four apparently unrelated events. The tape begins with tape apparently taken at a exhibition opening; the words "Cooper Gallery" are clearly heard at one point. At about 6' the camera moves to a video screening room with a number of director's chairs which an audience fills as the sequence goes on. At about 10' there is a cut to a man [David Van Tieghem?] who blows up a balloon; about 12'15'" he plays a musical piece on a set of pipes, then moves to and plays an array of glass vases and bowls on a table; at 16'40" there is a short sequence in which he blows soap bubbles, then plays an array of metal cans. At 20' the tape returns to the video screening with several short sequences, returning to the percussionist at 23'30". At 25' and to 34'46" the tape cuts to a continuation of the Wilke interview, apparently additional video shot on the same occasion as the two tapes above: Wilke wears the same clothing, camera angles and texture match, and she is surrounded by many of the same objects. There are no credits or titles. [The correct sequence here may be that the Wilke interview was begun on the end of this tape, then continued on the tape above, but the audio doesn't provide clear continuity]. Beta version re-recorded to DVCam and DVD digital formats in 2008."--Artists Television Network finding aid.
