Join us as we applaud Melissa Henry's work this past year at the School for Advanced Research as the 2013 Eric and Barbara Dobkin Native Artist Fellow. She is in pre-production for her upcoming film Black Cat in Space (working title); later this month she is giving an artist talk, reception and hosting an open studio to showcase an animatic preview of the film and inviting the community in to see her hand-drawn storyboards and character designs. Awesome!

Jack, a bright red sorrel, has lost his right eye in a tragic accident, and Lauren is determined to help him adjust and then enter him in the Trail class at the end-of-summer show.

Bryan Konefsky's short, Miss Yummy Yummy, has been selected for the 25th Festival Les Instants Vidéo at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina Art Center (Egypte). This work was shot in the town of Wurzburg while I was traveling in Germany. The final film/video was inspired by Bruce Conner's iconic deconstruction of image and celebrity - Marilyn X 5 (1973).
