Artist, curator, and founder of online art archive This Long Century, Jason Evans comes to Metrograph to join in conversation with an eclectic array of interdisciplinary creators and visionaries working in or adjacent to moving image-based art in this screening/artist talk series. A stimulating survey of artist-facing close reads, This Long Century Presents probes the creative visions of the sort of smartly curated selection of polymathic modern luminaries that This Long Century has been bringing together since its founding in 2008.

“Diane Severin Nguyen destroys the divide between binaries, keeping us in a constant state of change, where nothing is absolute. Her films, like her photographic work, are formed out of many possibilities—copies, covers, contradictions, versions, interpretations, rehearsals—often drawing on shared histories and cultural touchstones, presenting them as fragments, broken and recomposed over time.”—Jason Evans, This Long Century
