Nineteen Eighty Four posted on August 23rd, 2010
The exhibition entitled Nineteen Eighty Four at Austrian Cultura Centre in New York city, “examines the evolution of imagery and language in what has been described as our panoptic era. While its roots are grounded in the concepts that arose from the 1948 novel by George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four, which clearly reflected the historical background of totalitarianism, this exhibition attempts to distance itself from this source by considering forms of surveillance and control today, where an all-powerful apparatus as described in Orwell’s work appears overly simplistic.” more…

Crumb posted on August 12th, 2010
Terry Zwigoff’s landmark 1995 film is an intimate documentary portrait of underground artist Robert Crumb, whose unique drawing style and sexually and racially provocative subject matter have made him a household name in popular American art. Zwigoff candidly and colorfully delves into the details of Crumb’s incredible career, as well as his past, including his family of reclusive eccentrics, some of the most remarkable people you’ll ever see on-screen. At once a profound biographical portrait, a riotous examination of a man’s controversial art, and a devastating look at a troubled family, Crumb is a genuine American original.
Crumb is being reissued by Criterion Collection and includes a
New, restored high-definition digital transfer
2010 audio commentary with Zwigoff
2006 with Zwigoff and critic Roger Ebert
Outtakes and deleted scenes
Stills gallery
