Description | Please join us for a special outdoor screening of Kerry Tribe's Exquisite Corpse in Occidental Square in conjunction with the Seattle Art Fair. There will be an introduction to the film by Kerry Tribe and a Q+A following the screening. Kerry Tribe's Exquisite Corpse is a 51-minute film that traces the 51-mile LA River from its origin in the San Fernando Valley to its terminus at the Pacific Ocean. Along the way, Tribe's camera captures its varied landscapes, neighborhoods, creatures, and communities through a string of meditative encounters that collectively describe the river at this juncture in its history. The Jacob Lawrence Gallery has a related video work, =, along with Tribe’s large-scale, map-based "script” for Exquisite Corpse on view as part of the exhibition Kerry Tribe: Standardized Patient.
