Click here if you don’t see the video above.

Ina Diane Archer, whose collages and videos were singled out by almost everyone who saw them in the show we curated in the fall of 2006, sent me a trailer for her video 1/16th of 100%!?. If you’re going to be in Atlanta, go see it as part of

Cinema Remixed and Reloaded: Black Women Artists and the Moving Image Since 1970
Part II: January 24 – May 24, Spelman College Museum of
Fine Art, Atlanta, GA.

She describes it thusly:

1/16th of 100%!?, video (23 minutes)
Ina Diane Archer
Writer, director, editor 1993/96

Montage that examines themes of appropriation, miscegenation and minstrelsy through manipulated footage found in Hollywood movies from the 1920s through the 1950s — including Imitation of Life, Showboat and The Jazz Singer.

I see Art Fag City wrote about this show (which opens tomorrow) and David Choi’s work. Since she said she didn’t know anything about Michael Behle’s work, I asked James to take photos of the three works we own, since everyone who visits our apartment asks about them. We don’t know titles for these. They all date from the late 1990s / early 2000s and are quite different from the recent work we’ve seen.
