Event details
Experience the visionary world of Nam June Paik, the pioneering video artist hailed as the “Father of Video Art” and the mastermind behind the term “electronic superhighway.”
Born in Japan-occupied Korea, Paik struggled for decades to prove to the world that his progressive work deserved to be seen and experienced as art. He persevered through near poverty and physical ruin to become a central figure in the American avant-garde – reshaping the landscape of modern image-making through his groundbreaking sculptures, films and performances.
With Academy Award Nominee Steven Yeun’s emotive narration of Paik’s writings, this compelling film provides an intimate glimpse into the mind and legacy of this artistic luminary.
Town Hall Gallery will be open late.
