Jordan Baseman – Dark Is The Night

Posted by LoveHowlMuse on February 9th, 2009

UK based film artist Jordan Baseman is making new work in and around Soho interviewing inhabitants who range from the notorious to the anonymous, including hedonists and faded actors. The interview process is at the heart of Baseman’s work. He heavily edits this recorded material, juxtaposing the finished interviews with film footage taken in and around Soho, to construct narratives that mimic and yet subvert the traditional documentary film format. The end product will be a series of films that are at once semi-narrative, poetic and revealing. The works will create a portrait of a place that is both constant and fleeting.

More information, including a free coach trip from London to the preview and Jordan Baseman in conversation with Peter Bonnell on the Artsway website.
