For the third installment of EAI Invites, Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI) is pleased to welcome Martha Wilson, the pathbreaking feminist artist and founding director of Franklin Furnace. Noting that “most people are interested in sex” and the subject’s subsequent broad appeal, Martha Wilson has selected sexually explicit and audacious work from the collections of both EAI and Franklin Furnace, exploring human relations from multiple perspectives. Works screened will include Post Porn Modernist, a 1990 performance by Annie Sprinkle, along with a selection of film and video by Ellen Cantor, Barbara Hammer, Mike Kelley, Cynthia Maughan, Bruce Nauman, Carolee Schneemann, and Julie Zando.

Mediated Presence: Three Decades of Artists' Video from Electronic Arts Intermix is a three-part survey, spanning the years 1967 to 1997, that explores the rich and diverse modes by which artists use video to investigate self. Tracing how artists have articulated a mediated relationship with the viewer and technology, this program re-visits notions of performance and gesture within the framework of three decades of artists' video, and provides a historical context for recent works.
