SPECIAL EAI DVDS BY DAN GRAHAM AND SHANA MOULTON:
WATCH THEM AT HOME

DAN GRAHAM: MINOR THREAT
1983, 38:18 min, color, sound
$35 at the NY Art Book Fair

In this raw video document, Dan Graham, an ardent observer of rock subgenres and bands, documents legendary D.C. hardcore band Minor Threat in a 1982 performance at New York's CBGB. Hardcore, as typified by Minor Threat, is seen by Graham as a tribal rite, an explosive catalyst for the violence and frustration of its predominantly male, teenage audience.

SHANA MOULTON: WHISPERING PINES Vol. 1
2002-2004, 21:37 min, color, sound
$35 at the NY Art Book Fair

Whispering Pines Volume 1 presents the first four installments of Shana Moulton's ongoing episodic narrative video series. In Whispering Pines, Moulton performs as her alter ego Cynthia, a deadpan and anxiety-ridden hypochondriac who wears clothing embedded with medical devices and inhabits an uncanny and possibly magical domestic universe.

EAI will also feature the following other special items, which are all available for individual and institutional purchase:

- Zoe Beloff's DREAMLAND: The Coney Island Amateur Psychoanalytic Society and their Circle
- ETC: Experimental Television Center 1969-2009: 5-DVD box set & catalog, featuring 100 artists
