Highlights of the exhibition include Stark's pre-YouTube Cat
Videos (1999 — 2002); the
playful, provocative and psychedelic «chorus girl» collages from the series A Torment of Follies (2008); My Best Thing (2011), a
video that debuted at the 2011 Venice Biennale edited from Stark's cyber exchanges with two online paramours; the celebrated
video installation Bobby Jesus's Alma Mater b / w Reading the Book of David and / or Paying Attention Is Free (2013), set to a West Coast gangsta rap soundtrack and featuring images that range from Renaissance paintings, to family snapshots, to
portraits of hip hop legends.
The painted
portrait placed to the left of the monitor isolates just one of the poses in Sandra's
video, but her contrapposto stance, shoulder pads, and copper belt crystallize the
playful grace she expressed in the
video's fluid time.
