Episode 161: Possibly in Michigan (1983)

A very special episode this week, as Josh and Drusilla dive into the work of video artist Cecilia Condit and Possibly in Michigan. From wiki: “Cecelia Ann Condit[2] (born 15 December 1947) is an American video artist. Condit's films are noted for their attempts to subvert traditional mythologies of female representation and psychologies of sexuality and violence. Condit has received awards from the Guggenheim Foundation, American Film Institute, National Endowment for the Arts, Mary L. Nohl Foundation, Wisconsin Arts Council and National Media Award from the Retirement Research Foundation. Her work has been shown internationally in festivals, museums and alternative spaces and is represented in collections including the Museum of Modern Art in NYC and Centre Georges Pompidou Musee National d'Art Moderne, Paris, France. In 2008, Condit had her first solo show exhibition at the CUE Art Foundation in New York.[3]

Also discussed: Chilly Scenes of Winter (1979) and the Joan Micklin Silver collection, The Secret (2007), remembering Gene Hackman through 1972’s Prime Cut, aesthetics, and more!
