Doors 7:30pm / Event 8pm
Thursday, September 26th at 8pm, ISSUE Project Room presents Jo Andres’ award-winning film Black Kites (1996), and a unique performance featuring the film’s source text based on the 1992 wartime journals of Bosnian visual artist Alma Hajric, as part of the 2024 Brooklyn Book Festival. The film will be screened at ISSUE’s 22 Boerum Pl. limited-capacity theater. Following the screening, several collaborators and friends of Andres including Eszter Balint (actress, vocalist, and violinist), Mimi Goese (actress in the original film), and Hahn Rowe (original music), will offer a modern presentation of the film’s text featuring a live score and reading of the spectral journals. Bringing together experimental artists across generations, 2024 ISSUE Artist-In-Residence Katie Porter will join the ensemble.
This Fall, the organization honors the renowned performance & visual artist at our 2024 Gala, recognizing her on the heels of Jo Andres: Before Your Eyes, the first expansive exhibition of the artist’s work spanning 40 years, including ISSUE’S co-presentation of the Liquid TV salon this past Spring.
