Moves Manager
Screening April 2012 – 2013
Opening: First Thursday, April 5, 2012 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Beidler’s work utilizes the production of sculpture and live action as a means of interfacing the realm of the imaginary with the realm of the real. Content for his work, including Moves Manager, is derived from personal experience and employs the traditional format of the "self-portrait" as a means of telling stories that are autobiographical in nature. Humor, elements of film, performance, public art and functional sculpture are all present in Moves Manager.
