Exit In 3

Dates

April 25 - May 2

Video

The New York premiere of EXIT IN 3, a fiction documentary, is based on the lives and works of three New York artists: Jerry Kearns, Elaine Lustig Cohen and Hunt Slonem. Conceived and directed by Papo Colo, this short story saga follows two agents who metaphorically investigate the artworld. EXIT IN 3 is a new approach to documentary that deals with the problems of translating the medium of painting into the medium of TV. By using the vehicle of fiction to create a structure, the tape progresses in a way where reality and imagination combine to make a statement about art and its strategies. Using interviews and video portraits interwoven with elements of fiction, EXIT IN 3 focuses on three artists representing different tendencies in contemporary art, an inventive use of video, to portray the life of a visual artist in an story in which humor, politics and aesthetics coexist in an intimate manner.
