BETWEEN THE LINES: EMERGING VOICES IN AMERICAN LIT AND FILM AT BAM

Presented in Partnership with A Public Space 

WED, OCT 10 AT 8PM
       

Imagined hookers, the odds of getting a date in Belfast, and all
manners of literary hijinks are only the beginning when BAM and
Brooklyn cultural journal A Public Space kick off Between the Lines.

The night opens with Meehan Crist as she charts the intersection of neuroscience,
philosophy, and memoir. Wells Tower evokes the darkness and light that lie beneath the veneer
of convention with a style steeped in Southern story-telling tradition; and John Wray (Canaan’s
Tongue
) plunges into the mysteries of the New York night with only the Kid Estados Unidos as
a guide.

Complementing these readings, artist Brent Green’s handmade animation of a singular family
history—screened with live narrative performance—shimmers with rough beauty; Sabrina
Gschwandtner creates new nonlinear forms combining video and textile art; and sculptor and
video artist Mac Premo shapes a portrait of Belfast from the city’s forgotten industrial fragments.
