Experimental Tuesdays: Luminous Being: The Films of Joost Rekveld
Tuesday, 10/06/2009 – 7:00 p.m.

Joost Rekveld in person

A rare North American appearance by Dutch artist Joost Rekveld, whose work plays out at the intersections of technology and the history of science, and of cognition and natural phenomenon. Since 1991, Rekveld has been making abstract films and light installations and more recently, works in robotics and algorithmic art. The program will include two films created with Rekveld’s self-designed mechanical and optical machines- #11, Marey <-> Moiré (35mm Cinemascope, 21 min, 1999) a film in which all images were generated by intermittently recording the movement of a line, and #23.2, Book of Mirrors (35mm, 12 min, 2002) a film that deals with the multiplication of light beams through kaleidoscopes and mirrors. This program will also include the Midwest premiere of Rekveld’s latest film, #37 (35mm Cinemascope, 31 min, 2009), part of an ongoing exploration of the propagation and diffraction of light through holes and grids, the inspiration for which came from the way crystallographers use X-rays to investigate the internal structure of crystals.

Co-presented by the UWM Film Department and the Inter-Arts Arts Tech program.

Reception: Sunday, September 13, 2-4 pm.

Fred Berman: Works Across Seven Decades traces the remarkable dedication, longevity and steadfast vision of this Peck School Professor Emeritus.

Mark
(Mike Hoolboom, Canada, 70 min, video, 2009)
Mike Hoolboom in person

Considered one of the finest independent filmmakers of his generation, Mike Hoolboom has created dozens of films and videos over the past three decades which have been shown worldwide and have garnered numerous awards and critical acclaim. Hoolboom’s most recent film, Mark, is a feature-length portrait of his recently deceased friend. With appropriated images from a wide range of sources as well as original footage and home movies, Hoolboom creates, through spacious and energetic montage, a moving and intimate view.

“A sidelong biography of my friend and long time editor Mark Karbusicky. Animal rights activist, political vegan, punk maestro, the life-partner of Mirha-Soleil Ross, a transsexual force of nature.” –Mike Hoolboom Co-presented by the UWM Film Department and the Milwaukee LGBT Film/Video Festival.

Dialogues in Best Practice: The Power of Theatre in Health Education

The 2009 Center on Age & Community Dialogue in Best Practice explores the power of theatre to teach empathy in health education settings, be they in classrooms or conference halls. The Dialogue begins with a brief moderated discussion among Dr. Tracy Hoffman (Medical College of Wisconsin), Merri Biechler (University of Indianapolis), author of a play about cancer and caregiving, and Barbara Leigh (Milwaukee Public Theater), who tours a show about disability to schools and other settings. The discussion then opens to include the audience in the dialogue. Sample questions include: What projects might be needed/effective in Milwaukee? How can the arts be helpful to community health? What is the unique impact of the arts in medical education? The dialogue is ideal for people interested in using theater in public health, academic settings, or professional settings. (See related workshop, October 23.)
