Singalong Vol. 5: THE JACKSONS brings the VICTORY album to life!

VICTORY allows each of the Jackson brothers to have his moment in the spotlight, with songs ranging from pop (“Torture,” “Body”) to ballads (“Be Not Always,” “One More Chance”) to rock (“State of Shock,” Michael’s unforgettable duet with Mick Jagger).

Screening | World-Premiere Documentary: Andrea Callard's Talking Landscape: Early Media Work, 1974-1984 (2012)


Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jenny Holzer, Kiki Smith, Christy Rupp, and Jack Smith were among the artists who filled a ex-massage parlor with artwork from top to bottom for The Times Square Show, a legendary exhibit co-organized by Andrea Callard as part of the 1970s powerhouse collective Colab. (Keith Haring even painted the air conditioner). Callard, whose own work will not long remain one of New York's best-kept secrets, includes her never-before-seen documentation of that event in Talking Landscape, her first feature film. This compendium of short pieces (including 11 thru 12, Fluorescent/Azalea, Flora Funera (for Battery Park City) and Lost Show Blues) here making its world premiere, was culled from a decade of her playful and strikingly innovative cinematic experiments. 80 min.
