LISTING STYLE:

In Precious Products we are subtly reminded of this country’s obsession with consumerism and narcissism.

As a video journal shot by George Kuchar’s students in his Underground Drama class at the San Francisco Art Institute, George Kuchar Goes to Work offers a unique glimpse into the frenzied chaos that was his directing method.

Craggy, ice-encrusted peaks soar skyward as blue lagoons lap incessantly to the drumbeats of big city behemoths hellbent on halibut and hashbrowns!

Society Slut

1995 | 00:58:00

The story of a matron and a midget in the heat of an unbridled passion. The colors run thick and heavy for paint and prurient pleasures as the electronic canvas unscrolls to reveal a bevy of beasties and beauties of nature and the unnatural.

A sprawling look at chunks of our country as I travel back east to present some programs, and a peek at the venues that screen underground movies to the youth of today.

Foto Spread

1991 | 00:05:00

A photographer comes to my home to take pictures and gets a lensful. His mouth and his shutter snap away as I aim my finest attributes at his cold and hard equipment.

Chat'n'Chew

1992 | 00:14:59

Cats nibble, people ingest holiday toxins, and barbecues emit clouds of disembodied fat as a woman in need of caloric consumption displays the objects of her obsession.

Trinity

1993 | 00:05:28

Part of a trilogy of works known as the Video Wallpaper Series in which George tests out his new audio/video digital mixer and creates a range of impressions of people and places.

An 8mm video that reunites cast members of a film Kuchar made in the '60s. They stage another shoot and the camera is left on to record old friends getting older and more childlike as time and champagne trickle away.

Weather Diary 4

1988 | 00:48:00

Attempting to apologize for the lack of good weather in Weather Diary 3, George arrives in Milwaukee only to find the drought back in full swing.

The ground is frozen and the whiteness hides the carcass of a thing that once was happy... but now maybe had gotten gassed by things undigested.
