Turn Me on Dammit! (Jacobsen, 2011)

Last updated on: July 26, 2014 at 11:18 am   By Kenneth R. Morefield

I think the thing that may disarm some viewers who are predisposed to dislike or be offended by Turn Me on Dammit! is that it isn't really, truly, in the final analysis, about the sex. Read more

Mirror Mirror (Singh, 2012)

Last updated on: July 26, 2014 at 2:41 pm   By Kenneth R. Morefield

But Mirror Mirror has Julia Roberts in it, so it must be a Julia Roberts movie. I like Julia Roberts. I found her charming in Notting Hill and I respect her work in other places. I think, however, her persona is wrong for the material. Her evil queen has neither the icy malevolence to be truly scary, nor the whiff of desperation to be at all sympathetic. Read more

It segues between philosophical ruminations about the relationship between printmaking and politics, observations of the creation of several new pieces, and montages of completed works of political art from a wide array of artists. Read more
