Chiara Clemente: Our City Dreams
Five Artists. Their Dreams. One City.
Text by Dodie Kazanjian, Chiara Clemente. Interview with Marina Abramovic, Nancy Spero, Kiki Smith, Ghada Amer, Swoon.
Our City Dreams is Chiara Clemente's affecting love letter to art's capital city. A companion to Clemente's documentary of the same name, which received rave reviews when it debuted in theaters in 2009 (New York Magazine described it as “a first-rate portrait of great artists”), it follows five iconic women artists: Swoon, Ghada Amer, Kiki Smith, Marina Abramovi? and Nancy Spero. For these artists, at varying stages in both life and career, the activity and the rewards of artmaking are deeply identified with the pulse and dazzle of New York. Our City Dreams features film stills, transcriptions of the interviews in the film and an interview with Chiara Clemente by Dodie Kazanjian.
