Voices: Natalie Bookchin
@ Gallery 400
400 S Peoria St, Chicago, IL 60607
Opening Tuesday, February 28th, from 6PM - 7:30PM
In this Voices lecture, artist Natalie Bookchin discusses her body of work: multi-channel video installations and single-channel videos made up of numerous fragments of first-person vernacular videos. Digging deep into databases of online videos, she finds material that might not otherwise be seen, or creates her own archives of videos that appear to be absent online. These works explore changing boundaries between public and private, and present individual and collective performances of the shared self in an era of ubiquitous connectivity.
Bookchin’s work is exhibited widely including at MoMA, LACMA, PS1, Mass MOCA, the Walker Art Center, the Pompidou Centre, MOCA Los Angeles, the Whitney Museum, the Tate, and Creative Time. She has received numerous grants and awards, including from Creative Capital, California Arts Council, the Guggenheim Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, a COLA Artist Fellowship, the Center for Cultural Innovation, and most recently, a MacArthur Foundation Grant, a NYSCA Individual Artist Fellowship and a NYFA Opportunity Grant.
