Roundabout

@ Gene Siskel Film Center

164 N State St, Chicago, IL 60601

Opening Thursday, September 28th, from 6PM - 8:30PM

Video Data Bank (VDB), a special collection of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, is pleased to present the first iteration of the new ongoing screening series Roundabout taking place at the Gene Siskel Film Center on September 28, 2023 at 6PM CDT.

In Roundabout, the Chicago video art distributor invites fellow moving image archives and distributors to collaborate on a conversational program of short experimental works, prompted to respond to a selection of works from VDB’s collection with a selection from their own. The first participant, Electronic Arts Intermix, is a New York City–based nonprofit arts organization that is a leading international resource for video and media art, and whose core program is the distribution and preservation of a major collection of more than 4,000 new and historical video works by artists.

Artists featured in the program include Shigeko Kubota, Kevin B. Lee, Ursula Hodel, Mary Patten, Maggie Lee, Luis Valdovino, Frank Heath, and Richard Landry.

Tickets are available for purchase at the Gene Siskel Film Center website (https://www.siskelfilmcenter.org/roundabout), or at the box office.
