Fine Art Magazine caught up in a recent phone interview with Whitney Ransick, director and co producer of Misfire: The Rise and Fall of The Shooting Gallery. Ransick offered a fascinating history, a glimpse in to his unbiased, detailed documentary reportage. The filmmaker describes the inception of The Shooting Galley and how all involved rode the wave within the indie film industry to notoriety, which finally ends in the fiscal collapse of the production house.  A fate other Indie film houses share Ransick states in general over time.  It is the unabashed truth, innovative energy, and stellar changes in movie making for all moviegoers that makes the MISFIRE: THE RISE AND FALL OF THE SHOOTING GALLERY a must see film.

Whitney Ransick interviewing Jason Kliot (Open City)

Premiering at the Hampton’s International Film Festival Saturday Oct. 12, East Hampton NY, the feature length documentary, The Rise and Fall of The Shooting Gallery, Ransick dialogues with passion and purpose, the voice of The Shooting Gallery community.  He documents the cohesive evolution of this iconic facility, originally more of a communal experiment experience, as it is transformed into a multi million-dollar factory over time. Ransick notes the extensive projects developed at The Shooting Gallery along the way.  It was astounding to understand the breadth and depth of The Shooting Gallery, a chiseled profile as an indie leader, fueled initially by collective creativity, as Ransick relays the story.

Mr. Ransick, with co producers Gil Gilbert and Bob Gosse in Misfire: The Rise and Fall of The Shooting Gallery worked in tandem to weave a complex montage. The Film’s extensively edited insights touch universally on the creative tech revolution of the 1990’s through 2001.

Director | Whitney Ransick Producer | Whitney Ransick, Gil Gilbert, Bob Gosse Synopsis | MISFIRE: The Rise and Fall of The Shooting Gallery, is a documentary about the independent film company that rose to the top of the 90s film scene before financial risk-taking caused its spectacular crash. A universal story of young men with dreams who achieve too much success, it is the “Enron of independent films”.

SCREENING AT HAMPTONS INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL Saturday, October 12 | 2:15PM | UA East Hampton Theater 3 ROWDY TALK AT HAMPTONS INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL Sunday, October 13 | 10:00AM | Rowdy Hall

In noted interviews, published articles, and photographs with Bob Gosse, Edie Falco, Ed Burns, and Ransick among others, “Misfire,” describes with great passion this indie film house meteoric rise up and eventual implosion.

The Shooting Gallery revolutionized the start up of the “indie film” movement.  The production tenure arc roughly ran from, Sex, Lies and Video Tape 1989, (James Spader & Andie MacDowell)

Producer/DP: Gil Gilbert, Director: Whitney Ransick, and Producer: Bob Gosse.

Director/Producer :Whitney Ransick, DP : Derek Weisehahn

and later galvanizing success with Sling Blade, 1996 (Billy Bob Thornton, Dwight Yoakam, J.T. Walsh, and John Ritter).

Film manufacturing ends in 2001. Within the burgeoning indie film industry The Shooting Gallery acted as an evolutionary catalyst, salted with improvisation and creative initiative.  Misfire: The Rise and Fall of The Shooting Gallery lends a voice to this iconic indie film house that revolutionized the times. Film aficionados, and all those who just want to be in the know, catch it when you can.

Synopsis:                                             Hailed as one of the most distinguished families in American literature, the Hemingways have always exposed both their bright brilliance and their harrowing secrets. Two-Time Academy Award winning filmmaker Barbara Kopple's newest documentary focuses on Mariel Hemingway, a granddaughter of the legendary writer Ernest, as she explores her family's disturbing history of mental illness and suicide. As a youngster, Mariel followed her supermodel sister, Margaux, into the acting world. Critics immediately praised Mariel’s natural talent, which created a deep rift between the sisters.

Kopple's bold portrait of the Hemingways intertwines haunting archival footage from Margaux's personal family documentary with scenes from Mariel’s life today as she advocates for suicide prevention and strives to live a rigorously healthy lifestyle to combat what appears to be her birthright. Mariel’s courageous journey of acceptance and introspection allows her to view her family and turbulent upbringing through new eyes and, for the first time, accept them with a peaceful heart.

 

All the best,

Herman's House

Herman's House @hermansfilm hermanshousethefilm.com Trailer Dear Friends, It is with tremendous sadness that we must inform you that only three days after being released from prison, Herman Wallace has passed away this morning from liver cancer.  We thought to share with you the entire text of the enewsletter which the Angola 3 Campaign sent out a short while ago with this news. This morning we lost without a doubt the biggest, bravest, and brashest personality in the political prisoner world.  It is with great sadness that we write with the news of Herman Wallace's passing. Herman never did anything half way.  He embraced his many quests and adventures in life with a tenacious gusto and fearless determination that will absolutely never be rivaled.  He was exceptionally loyal and loving to those he considered friends, and always went out of his way to stand up for those causes and individuals in need of a strong voice or fierce advocate, no matter the consequences. Anyone lucky enough to have spent any time with Herman knows that his indomitable spirit will live on through his work and the example he left behind.  May each of us aspire to be as dedicated to something as Herman was to life, and to justice. Below is a short obituary/press statement for those who didn't know him well in case you wish to circulate something.  Tributes from those who were closest to Herman and more information on how to help preserve his legacy by keeping his struggle alive will soon follow. On October 4th, 2013, Herman Wallace, an icon of the modern prison reform movement and an innocent man, died a free man after spending an unimaginable 41 years in solitary confinement. Herman spent the last four decades of his life fighting against all that is unjust in the criminal justice system, making international the inhuman plight that is long term solitary confinement, and struggling to prove that he was an innocent man.  Just 3 days before his passing, he succeeded, his conviction was overturned, and he was released to spend his final hours surrounded by loved ones.  Despite his brief moments of freedom, his case will now forever serve as a tragic example that justice delayed is justice denied. Herman Wallace's early life in New Orleans during the heyday of an unforgiving and unjust Jim Crow south often found him on the wrong side of the law and eventually he was sent to the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola for armed robbery.  While there, he was introduced to the Black Panther's powerful message of self determination and collective community action and quickly became one of its most persuasive and ardent practitioners. Not long after he began to organize hunger and work strikes to protest the continued segregation, endemic corruption, and horrific abuse rampant at the prison, he and his fellow panther comrades Albert Woodfox and Robert King were charged with murders they did not commit and thrown in solitary. Robert was released in 2001 after 29 years in solitary but Herman remained there for an unprecedented 41 years, and Albert is still in a 6x9 solitary cell. Herman's criminal case ended with his passing, but his legacy will live on through a civil lawsuit he filed jointly with Robert and Albert that seeks to define and abolish long term solitary confinement as cruel and unusual punishment, and through his comrade Albert Woodfox's still active and promising bid for freedom from the wrongful conviction they both shared. Herman was only 9 days shy of 72 years old. Services will be held in New Orleans. The date and location will be forthcoming.

Chris Burden: Extreme Measures at the New Museum
This October, the New Museum will present an expansive presentation of Chris Burden’s work that marks the first New York survey of the artist and his first major exhibition in the US in over twenty-five years.
Burden’s epoch-defining work has made him one of the most important American artists to emerge since 1970. Spanning a forty-year career and moving across mediums, “Extreme Measures” presents a selection of Burden’s work focused on weights and measures, boundaries and constraints, where physical and moral limits are called into question.
Over the past four decades, Burden has created a unique and powerful body of work that has redefined the way we understand both performance and sculpture.

Vasily Kandinsky: From Blaue Reiter to the Bauhaus, 1910-1925 at the Neue Galerie
While Vasily Kandinsky (1866-1944) is celebrated as a father of abstraction, the artist is lesser known as an early pioneer of installation art. Connecting art, music, and theater, this exhibition of masterworks explores the development of Kandinsky's art during a crucial chapter of his career: from the Blaue Reiter period into the pure abstraction and total environments of his Bauhaus years. Central to the exhibition is a gallery devoted to the reconstruction of Kandinsky's murals for theJuryfreie Kunstschau (Jury-Free Art Show) held in Berlin in 1922, a utopian project designed by Kandinsky and executed by his Bauhaus students. Over 80 works comprise the show, including large-scale paintings, rare drawings, and decorative objects.

The Armory Show at 100: Modern Art and Revolution at The New-York Historical Society
Works by Duchamp, Matisse, Picasso, Cézanne, Gauguin, and Van Gogh will be on display in The Armory Show at 100: Modern Art and Revolution, which revisits the famous 1913 New York Armory Show on its 100th anniversary. In 1913, the International Exhibition of Modern Art came to New York. Organized by a small group of American artists and presented at the Lexington Avenue Armory (and thus nicknamed the Armory Show), it introduced the American public to European avant-garde painting and sculpture. This exhibition is an exploration of how the Armory Show inspired seismic shifts in American culture, politics, and society.
The New-York Historical Society's exhibition reassesses the Armory Show with a carefully chosen group of one hundred masterworks from the 1913 show. The exhibition includes American and European paintings and sculpture that will represent the scandalous avant-garde and the range of early twentieth-century American art. It will also include historical works (dating through the nineteenth century) that the original organizers gathered in an effort to show the progression of modern art leading up to the controversial abstract works that have become the Armory Show’s hallmark.
The 2013 exhibition revisits the Armory Show from an art-historical point of view, shedding new light on the artists represented and how New Yorkers responded. It will also place this now-legendary event within the context of its historical moment in the United States and the milieu of New York City in ca. 1911–1913. To that end, music, literature and early film will be considered, as well as the political and economic climate.

Mike Kelley at MoMA PS1
MoMA PS1 presents Mike Kelley, the largest exhibition of the artist’s work to-date and the first comprehensive survey since 1993. Regarded as one of the most influential artists of our time, Mike Kelley (1954–2012) produced a body of deeply innovative work mining American popular culture and both modernist and alternative traditions—which he set in relation to relentless self- and social examinations, both dark and delirious. Bringing together over 200 works, from early pieces made during the 1970s through 2012, the exhibition occupies the entire museum. This exhibition marks the largest exhibition MoMA PS1 has ever done and the first time the museum has devoted the entire building to a single artist.

Mike Kelley: Extracurricular Activity Projective Reconstruction #1 at the Museum of Modern Art
In conjunction with the retrospective exhibition on view at MoMA PS1, MoMA presents Mike Kelley’s Extracurricular Activity Projective Reconstruction #1 (A Domestic Scene), a half-hour drama inspired by a photograph of a school play found in a high school yearbook.
Written and directed by Kelley in 2000, this one-act melodrama explores the psychologically fraught relationship between two men as it unfolds in a room centered around a gas stove. This video was the inaugural installment of Kelley’s monumental 36-part project, a series of performance works intended to fill in the blanks left by forgotten or repressed memories, with narratives of standardized abuse.

The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk at the Brooklyn Museum
The Brooklyn Museum is the only East Coast venue for The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk, the first international exhibition dedicated to the groundbreaking French couturier. Playful, poetic, and transformative, Gaultier’s superbly crafted and detailed garments are inspired by the beauty and diversity of global cultures.
This multimedia exhibition is organized around seven themes tracing the influences on Gaultier's development—from the streets of Paris to the cinema—since he emerged as a designer in the 1970s. It features approximately 140 haute couture and prêt-à-porter ensembles, from the designer’s earliest to his most recent collections, many of which are displayed on custom mannequins with interactive faces created by high-definition audiovisual projections.

Christopher Wool at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum
At the heart of Christopher Wool’s creative project, which spans three decades of highly focused practice, is the question of how a picture can be conceived, realized, and experienced today. Engaging the complexities of painting as a medium, as well as the anxious rhythms of the urban environment and a wide range of cultural references, his agile, largely monochrome works propose an open-ended series of responses to this central problem. This retrospective will fill the museum’s Frank Lloyd Wright–designed rotunda and an adjacent gallery with a rich selection of paintings, photographs, and works on paper, forming the most comprehensive examination to date of Wool’s career.

Rituals of Rented Island: Object Theater, Loft Performance, and the New Psychodrama—Manhattan, 1970–1980 at the Whitney Museum
This exhibition illuminates a radical period of 1970s performance art that flourished in downtown Manhattan, or what filmmaker and performance artist Jack Smith called “Rented Island,” and still remains largely unknown today. Working in lofts, storefronts, and alternative spaces, this group of artists, with backgrounds in theater, dance, music, and visual art, created complex new forms of performance to embody and address contemporary media, commercial culture, and high art.

Public Art Fund Talks: Mark Manders
Mark Manders' distinctive multi-disciplinary practice encompasses installation, sculpture, drawing and projected imagery. With carefully constructed assemblages of furniture, human and animal figures, newspapers, welded metal piping, light bulbs, and the ephemera of daily life, Manders’ enigmatic installations reflect an ongoing interest in creating a metaphorical self-portrait. To create his work, he fabricates each individual element in the studio, recreating everyday objects like newspapers, wood beams, or milled screws that, while familiar, are stripped of real-world references. As part of his working process, Manders “tests a work” by imagining it in a supermarket “to see if it can survive there, without being labeled as an artwork.” Manders’ talk will focus on his interest in public space and the dialogue between between life and art.

1913 The World Implodes: A Series of Talks and Performances at The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Europe was on the verge of committing suicide; Africa burst into Western consciousness; technology was on a dizzying trajectory; music was losing its grip on tonality, slipping loudly into entropy. Two monumental works were premiered within eight months of each other: Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire and Stravinsky's Rite of Spring.
To put this striking period into context—and perhaps find parallels with our own time—Met Museum Presents offers a series of conversations and concerts.

ICP Lecture Series: Sophie Calle
Sophie Calle is a French photographer, writer, and installation artist. By weaving together images with narrative, Calle lends a perspective that is equal parts observer of others and observer of self. Brimming with psychological motifs, Calle’s work pays particular attention to ideas around absence, intimacy, and vulnerability, while nimbly juxtaposing concepts of private and public, subject and object.
Calle's prolific career as a conceptual artist includes extensive international exhibitions, work in numerous museum collections, and representation by Paula Cooper and Barbara Krakow galleries, as well as Galerie Perrotin of Paris. Calle lives and works in Malakoff, France.

The Creative Time Summit 2013: Art, Place, and Dislocation in the 21st-Century City
The 2013 Creative Time Summit sets its sights on the fact that culture, for good or bad, is an active ingredient in the construction and shaping of the contemporary city. Tapping into widespread debate on this issue, this year’s Summit provides a global platform for consideration of the trials, tribulations, artistic practices, campaigns, theories, and practicalities that accompany this phenomenon. As the active role of culture in the city gains traction not only with artists but also with architects, city planners, philanthropists, and developers—from eye-popping monumental sculpture, to arts districts, to battles over eviction and squatting—this year’s Summit provides a timely opportunity to debate and consider a variety of artistic approaches to this contemporary condition.
Every year at the Creative Time Summit, the most innovative artists, activists, critics, writers, and curators come together in New York to engage with one another and a global audience about how they are attempting to change our world in unprecedented ways.
