LUCKY BUM FILM TOUR
toronto, monday oct 21st 8 pm, $8
@ Cinecycle, 129 spadina ave, rear, down the lane 416-971-4273
Portland, Oregon based artists Vanessa Renwick and Bill Daniel continue
their merciless, road-dogging onslaught of the continental U.S. with a
program of their experimental and documentary videos. Their 65-city, '87
Toyota van-powered tour is now criss-crossing the mid west and east coast.
These one-night, hit-and-run screenings happen in venues that range from
basements and underground film collectives to college campuses and art
museums and galleries.
On the Lucky Bum Film Tour, Daniel presents his "The Girl on the Train in
the Moon", a hobo campfire/video installation that is a record of his
14-year investigation into the secret world of freight riding and hobo
graffiti. The installation environment is constructed to resemble a hobo
camp scene, complete with a campfire and moon, which are actually
rear-projected video screens that flicker with images of freight-hopping
trips and interviews with tramps and rail graffiti artists. "The Girl on the
Train in the Moon" features legendary box car artists Herby, buZ blurr, and
Bozo Texino, plus a tribute to Matokie Slaughter, a mysterious banjo-playing
woman, whose beautiful drawings are seen on the side of freight trains from
coast to coast.
Renwick will screen her 70-minute, ten-film program, GO BABY GO, that begins
with her early experimental and activist work.and concludes with her latest
documentary video, "RICHART", a portrait of "outsider" artist Richard
Tracy. While confined to a psychiatric ward at age 50, Richart made this
discovery: "If you want to get out of the hospital -start making artwork
like this, they will get rid of you - immediately!" Seventeen years later,
he�s filled the three residential lots surrounding his house with a maze of
towering black and white sculptures made out of the town�s discards.
Her diaristic "CROWDOG" was shot on super-8 during a 9-month barefoot
hitchhiking trip across the US. The film records her visit to the Pine
Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota to investigate the remnants of the
FBI�s "Reign of Terror" on the American Indian Movement. Working beneath
even an "independent filmmaking" production scale, Renwick manages to be
prolific with a minimum of financial resources. The filmmaker labels her
work as "Undependant Film."
Renwick and Daniel�s films both share a restless spirit, an interest in
outlaw art-making, and an unflagging sense of wanderlust.
