A screening of six Raphael videos, and a discussion with the artist and David Wilson, director of the Museum of Jurassic Technology.
The videos featured are examples of Victor Raphael's video art-making throughout his career.
David Wilson received his M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts in 1974 and opened the Museum of Jurassic Technology in 1988 at its current Culver City location. Since its inception, the museum has expanded both in terms of its public offerings — through exhibitions and associated programs — as well as in its public recognition and reputation. The museum has exhibited internationally, and Wilson has produced six independent films, most recently under the auspices of the museum in conjunction with Kabinet, an arts-based cultural institution located in St. Petersburg, Russia. The latest of their collaborative efforts is entitled Obshee Delo or The Common Task. Over the past decade, the museum and Wilson have been honored through numerous grants and awards. In 2001, the MacArthur Foundation granted him a fellowship in recognition of his accomplishments at the Museum of Jurassic Technology.
USC Fisher Museum of Art presents this event in conjunction with the exhibition Victor Raphael: Travels and Wanderings, 1979-2009, currently on display from September 9 to December 19.
Another related event is Songs in the Earth and Air, a concert of vocal improvisations inspired by Raphael's work, on October 15.
