George Kuchar Interview
George Kuchar talks with Charles
Bernstein about the role politics
plays in his work in a wide-ranging and comic discussion that also
touches on his switch from super 8 to 16mm film to video, the
influence of early television on his work, and his relation to other
key members of the New American Cinema. George Kuchar’s many films
include Hold Me While I'm Naked (1966),
Pagan Rhapsody (1970), Devil's
Cleavage (1973), and, in more recent years, a remarkable set of self-documenting films
called the Weather Diaries. It Came From Kuchar,
Jennifer Kroot's documentary film on the life of
George and his twin brother and collaborator Mike
Kuchar was released in early 2009 (29 minutes).
