Love in outer space and under water, the first Heckman animation without dead animals & blood, will be screening in New York City on September 28 & 29 at Cine Capellini, hosted by Kamel Boutros & Anna Mosby Coleman. Many thanks to Anna & Kamel; this is Cine Capellini’s second run, and last year’s event was an amazing combination of home-cooked food & video art. Thank you to artist/curator Jason Lahr and the South Bend Regional Museum of Art for sponsoring the creation of this silent 4-channel animation and hosting its viewing at Meet Me on the Island in South Bend, Indiana earlier this year.
