Filmforum at MOCA: Small, Real: Observation and the Mundane

One Day at a Time: Manny Farber and Termite Art is inspired by artist Manny Farber’s call for an art of “both observing and being in the world.” Presented in conjunction with Kahlil Joseph’s film Fly Paper, which is the subject of a companion exhibition at MOCA Pacific Design Center, this program presents experimental film and video works by Cleon Arrey, Micah Ariel Watson, and Huey Amaru that employ the constituent parts of Joseph’s practice, namely observation, musicality, and a documentary impulse.
