Ericka Beckman

Zusatztext Ericka Beckman makes films without plots in a conventional sense! constituting them rather from themes: socialization! acculturation! competition! and the organization of thoughts and memory. Since they are largely structured like games! they do not have characters; they have players. Like everything else about the films-the scenery! the props! the animation-the players are representatives! stand-ins contributing to Beckman´s abstract ruminations on culture in a time-based medium. This lavishly illustrated reference monographs documents every film Ericka Beckman has made since her days as a CalArts graduate in the 1970s! and includes storyboards! production stills and notes! the librettos of her musicals! as well as a thorough photo-documentation of her multimedia installations.
