and Month of Printmaking, offering screenings, events, receptions and gallery shows throughout July.
Brilliantly curated to expose viewers to the video underground and some of its stars, MOV opens Saturday, July 1, with a screening at the Denver Art Museum and closes with a party and reception for a high-profile exhibition at theon July 29. Behind the scenes, De La Garza and Maurice are adamant about offering all the programming for free to viewers, but also upholding compensation for the artists.
“We actually have a rule that no one can participate unless they are paid,” De La Garza notes. “It’s not that I think painters shouldn't get paid to show their work whether it sells or not. They should, but video is so uncommon.
De La Garza is noncommittal when it comes to suggesting essential viewing during MOV: “We use the term video-curious. I’m not inclined to convince people that things are valuable. It all has the potential to channel other voices and ideas. I can show options and hope people are curious and want to join in."
And he's quick to share credit for the events he and Maurice are rolling out. “This is a shared labor,” De La Garza says. We have a small army of people putting this together. I'm constantly surprised how we can make these things happen collaboratively. There are a lot of people in Denver you can celebrate.”, a classy screening of works by local video artists in the Denver Art Museum’s Sharp Auditorium.
