Mapping the New Frontier

As a growing number of art-world figures explore the potential of moving images and cinematic forms, a vast New Frontier of visual expression is emerging. With energy and vision, these works (innovative films, moving-image installations, and technical innovations) reframe traditional notions of image making and narrative. Take a guided tour of the terrain with its new pioneers. Moderated by Chrissie Iles, curator of the Whitney Museum of American Art, the panel assembles New Frontier artists, including Douglas Gordon (Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait), Pierre Huyghe (A Journey That Wasn't, Streamside Day), Paul Chan (1st Light), Nina Menkes (Phantom Love), and Shu Lea Cheang (MobiOpera) for this informative look at cinema's new cutting edge. Recorded live Sunday, January 21 at the Prospector Theater.
