Liz Rodda visits Video Art Class


Artist Liz Rodda, currently exhibiting at the Crisp-Ellert Art Museum, visited Patrick Moser's Video Art class. Here is what a couple of students from the class thought about the visit:

" Liz Rodda visited our Video Arts class a couple weeks ago and discussed some of the work she has made using video and also discussed some of her favorite video artists and people she is inspired by. Liz creates a lot of videos which are appropriations of videos she finds from YouTube which I thought was interesting. She locates videos she finds interesting and pieces them together to create a new meaning or places them in unusual context. One artist she showed us was the late George Kuchar, who she had the chance to work with a few years back. He was an eccentric man who created wonderfully strange "B Movies." I have only recently gotten into the video art genre and it was great to hear from someone who shows her work in galleries internationally." -Alexander McNutt

"The artists she showed us were inspiring; George Kuchar especially. The videos made me calmer about what was expected of me for the class and it also excited me about future projects." -Lindsay Wheat
