NAN GOLDIN - In My Life (c) 1997
Running Time 28 minutes
Paul Tschinkel's Interview with the Artist In Her 13th St Studio
This program features the work of one of the major photographers of the latter part of the 20th Century. Seen is Goldin's compelling mid-career retrospective at The Whitney Museum of American Art which featured work culled from a period spanning more than 25 years of taking pictures. Organized by Whitney curator ELIZABETH SUSSMAN and selected by NAN GOLDIN and her life long friend and colleague DAVID ARMSTRONG, the exhibition tells a moving tale of Nan Goldin's life. Included are interviews with NAN GOLDIN and MARVIN HEIFERMAN, curator and a director of Lookout in New York.
JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT
running time: 34 minutes
On this program we see a rare interview with the mercurial painter, Jean-Michel Basquiat, conducted in 1981 in his studio on Crosby Street, in SOHO. Basquiat, an internationally renowned artist as well as the enfant terrible of the 1980's art scene, died tragically in 1988 at the age of 28. Both during his brief life and since his
untimely death, stories and legends abound which chronicle his meteoric rise to art world stardom.
In 1996 Basquiat's life was fictionalized in the film entitled BASQUIAT, directed by fellow artist Julian Schnabel. On this ART/new york program, the 21 year old
Basquiat is interviewed by art historian - curator Marc H. Miller, PhD. Already a well known art world figure, Basquiat's fondness for high jinks as well as his exuberant spirit are captured as he describes his working process and comments upon his art world persona.
