Manzutto spent time with Durham while working in his studio or installing an exhibition, and during public conversations or seated around the dinner table in a private setting. He gathered footage in sites ranging from Berlin to Mexico City, from London to Venice. Rather than interviewing the artist, he simply shot what was happening in that moment. Over time, the presence of the camera became so commonplace as to almost disappear, allowing for numerous candid, and completely unscripted, moments. Non-linear and non-narrative, the film provides insights into various facets of Durham's practice and the topics that inspire him, his thinking about materials, and the role of the artist in society - and enhances our understanding of the many chapters of his life, his political views, thoughts on religion, history and his overall philosophy of life and art. By the Curator of the retrospective "Jimmie Durham: At the Center of the World" Written by Anne Ellegood See less
