‘Interview’ at 107 Shaw Gallery
‘Interview’ stopped by the opening of the Tim Barber show we have up right now:

107Shaw Gallery in Eye Weekly
Profile on “They Shoot Videos, Don’t They?”
Eye Weekly did a piece on our bi-monthly music video screening series, “They Shoot Video, Don’t They?” and talked to our curator Scott Cudmore:
YouTube killed the video star. Yet Toronto director Scott Cudmore has a plan. “They Shoot Videos, Don’t They?,” a bi-monthly music-video screening series debuting July 9 at Trinity-Bellwoods gallery 107 Shaw (107 Shaw), features some of video’s best and brightest auteurs — most of them Canadian — proving that the art form can live on long after Michel Gondry and Spike Jonze take to bigger screens.
“The internet has really changed the way people make music videos,” says Cudmore, whose films for Timber Timbre, The National and Brian Borcherdt boast a wintry melancholia that recalls Hungarian filmmaker Miklós Jancsó. “Beyoncé’s video for ‘All The Single Ladies,’ for example, broke out on the internet and made people consciously look for music videos because of its art. The music video is a format that allows for a lot of experimentation, but it’s a very young medium of film that’s disappearing, at least from the mainstream public eye.”
