DETAILS

Luther Price (January 26, 1962 – June 13, 2020) was a prolific artist whose work explored the deepest, darkest corners of the human experience. Working in film, performance, sculpture, photography and mixed media, his haunting images were often composed from found elements, thickly layered with ink, paint, glue, tape and bodily fluids. In 2017, Price donated two sets of handmade 35mm slides to the VSW archives, and tonight we celebrate the release of New Utopia: Slides by Luther Price, a limited edition publication by VSW Press/Film Art Book. Tonight’s event will include a live screening of both sets of slides, shown as a dual projection on 35mm slide projectors.
