   I have two events in St. Louis on February 10. A gallery show of my art,
   including two recent films, opens at 6M. I will speak at a screening
   of my five early films plus one new one, on film, at 2 PM at Arkadin Cinema
   and Bar. I also have a new artist's statement, written for the St. Louis show.

   I have begun making films again, forty years after having stopped,
   in video form but possibly also to be trasnferred to film, and
   links are now posted to these works, of which more are coming.

   I have a new essay, In Despair at the State of the World, and not unrelated
   is my long jeremaid on our collapsing culture, and what is for me
   the restorative power of the best art, published this fall by the journal Logos

   Two friends have made videos about my art, Dreams of Lost Wholeness
   by Brian Hischier, and fred's unthreadings by Yoel Meranda. As a result,
   I have placed for the first time works from my current project,
   Weeks and Months, on this site, from the shooting Brian Hischier documented.

    My book Seeking Brakhage, collecting most of my writing on
    Stan Brakhage from 1966 to 2021,  received two excellent reviews
    recently (linked to from my page).
