Initially scheduled for last Fall, this screening presents Gunvor Nelson's feature-length experimental documentary Five Artists:
BillBobBillBillBob (1971, 70m), which she made with her frequent filmmaking partner, Dorothy Wiley. The film is a playful and intitmate portrait of five California-based filmmakers, painters, and sculptors, all close friends of Nelson's. Bill Wiley, Bob Nelson, Bill Allan, Bill Geis, and Bob Hudson are the title figures, all of whom get loving treatment in this often-overlooked gem. (70 min.)
