Description:

Produced while in residence at Western Front, Nancy Shaw’s single-channel video Picture Window intersperses excerpts of Vincente Minnelli's film Some Came Running (1958) with footage of Western Front’s garden, and title cards with short poetic fragments. The video was made in collaboration with Brice Canyon.

Video documentation is available upon request.
