Lauren Bender & David Gatten
@ DC Arts Center
LAUREN BENDER
7 feet of man-meat.
Editor, SUCCESS! @ Narrow House.
Performer, upcoming Transmodern Festival in April.
8 feet, not 7.
Feminine Arbiter of Phrases, Performance Thanatology Research Society.
There is nothing she can not fear.
DAVID GATTEN's films have explored the intersection of the printed word and the moving image, while investigating the shifting vocabularies of experience and representation within intimate spaces and historical documents. Through traditional research methods and non-traditional film processes, the films trace the contours of both private lives and public histories, combining elements of philosophy, biography and poetry with experiments in cinematic forms and narrative structures. Currently Gatten is at work on a series of nine films about letters, lovers, books, ghosts and the Byrd family of Virginia during the early 18th century. His work has been most recently screened at the Rotterdamn International Film Festival. For more visit http://www.davidgattenfilm.com/
