Bitch-Beauty: Bitch-Beauty is an experimental documentary paralleling the lives of Anne Hanavan, whose experiences as part of the underground scene in the East Village of the 1980s was contemporary with now-deceased actress Zoe Tamerlis Lund, the actor and screenwriter of Bad Lieutenant, who died of a heroin/cocaine overdose in 1999. Using Hanavan's films, performances, readings, and music as well as footage from Lund's work, Bitch-Beauty is an intense seven-minute time capsule of addiction, the perils of street prostitution, and subsequent renewal or revival through cathartic self-expression. Enduring Ornament: Sourced from found 16mm filmstrips originating from coin operated peep show booths of New York formerly seedy 42 street, Enduring Ornament is a film that confronts the cinematic history of idealized patriarchal desire at its fundamental existence as celluloid. Using a repurposed industrial contact printer and various other chemical alterations, we have transformed these images from a privatized male experience into a public projection of materialized bodily spectacle. Threaded throughout the film is the exuberant compound word poetry of Baroness Elsa von Freytag Loringhoven, giving voice to an immediate and transgressive consciousness....MM Serra-(Art) Core Collection ( Darling International / Bitch-Beauty / Enduring Ornament / Mary Magdalene / Real to reel Mama / Chop Off / Double Your P
