Fred Camper: Art Bio Contact

I have a new Artist's Statement, on Weeks and Months. I will partipate
again in my building's [Open Studios night]( to 10PM. https://www.bridgeportart.com/exhibitions/open-studios/) this September 20, 7 PM to 10.
53 works from Weeks and Months are now hanging, and can be seen when
the building is open. Enter through the lot at about 3440 S. Racine, and
look in two locations on the fourth floor, one next to my studio, 4F4052.

I have begun making films again, titled Interactions, forty years after
having stopped, in 4K video and best seen projected. There are 22 now,
with four new ones just posted 8/10/24. All are silent, most from four to
eight minutes; more are coming. See Liam Kenny's fine essay on them.

Brian Hischier wrote this excellent new review of my book Seeking Brakhage.

I have a long jeremaid on our current culture and the restorative power of
art in the journal Logos. See also my In Despair at the State of the World.

Two friends have made videos about my art, Dreams of Lost Wholeness
by Brian Hischier, and fred's unthreadings by Yoel Meranda. As a result,
I have placed on my site for the first time works from Weeks and Months,
whose shooting Hischier documented.
