Facing a Family

1971, 4:44 min, b&w, sound

In Facing a Family, a family is observed watching television. The viewer becomes the object of the family's gaze, as much as the family is the object of the viewer's gaze. Writes Roswitha Mueller, "The Electronic and the Real gazes cross without interacting."

Facing a Family was originally broadcast on Austrian Network Television, February 2, 1971.
