Description

Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI) is pleased to present an evening with Frank Heath, whose moving-image works explore the inner workings of underground infrastructures, communication networks, bureaucratic procedures, and other complex systems. Often, Heath reaches absurd conclusions, wryly revealing the disperse and bureaucratic nature of power structures and their susceptibility to human folly and historical contingency. EAI will screen three pieces, including the recently-completed archival montage Protect Your Home (Interpret It Well), a music video about home security accompanying a composition by percussionist Ches Smith.

Heath will appear in conversation following the screening. This event celebrates EAI’s distribution of the artist’s work, added to the catalogue in 2021.
