Press Release

Jamie Nares has produced visual art in a variety of mediums—painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, performance, film, and video. Initially a kind of adjunct to her art making, Nares’s moving-image work grew, as Nares put it, ‘to accommodate multiple genres, from document to documentary, magic realist drama to travelog,’ along with the epic no wave costume feature Rome 78. Presented in collaboration with the artist, this comprehensive retrospective encompasses film and video works created over five decades, including the premieres of the new pieces Building and Jamie: A Portrait providing, in the artist’s words, ‘a key of sorts to the map of her preoccupations.’

Organized by Ron Magliozzi, Curator, Department of Film.
