More Men and New Installations

 

 

Filmmaker and video artist Charles Atlas premiered and presented two video installations—Outie and Count, each involved varying and complex manipulations of images of Anne Iobst and Johanna Constantine. Atlas fragmented and reconfigured these facial images to animate The Kitchen’s gallery space. The exhibition also included a restored version of histwo-channel work, More Men, featuring depictions of generations of men including Dave Atlas, Michael Bloom, Johnny Carson, Lon Chaney III, Donald Duck, John Erdman, David Kennedy, Joseph Lennon, and Laszlo Le Tsurchkinaski. The ninety-minute work was first shown at The Kitchen in 1982.
