> The Video Data Bank is currently showcasing the Works of Cecilia Dougherty
> in their online program VDB-TV titled, "Make Believe, It’s Just like the
> Truth Clings to It”
> About this Program
>
> The work of Cecilia Dougherty explores the nature of queer women's
> relationships to one another, society, and the everyday, as well as a
> feminist analysis of lesbian sexuality, psychologies, and intimacies inside a
> culture that is, at best, indifferent and at worst, hostile. She often uses
> methodologies borrowed from documentary and biography to map contemporary
> realities over pop-historical icons, creating art that deals with nostalgia,
> popular culture, and the state of society. Looking to Dougherty’s lasting
> legacy, we are pleased to present the VDB TV program “Make Believe, It’s Just
> like the Truth Clings to It”: In Conversation with the Work of Cecilia
> Dougherty programmed by Amanda Mendelsohn, Graduate Distribution Assistant at
> the Video Data Bank, and School of the Art Institute of Chicago M.A.
> candidate in Modern and Contemporary Art History. Exploring the earlier video
> works of Dougherty, this program deals with issues of identity, queerness,
> and experimentation. The four titles selected, The Drama of the Gifted Child,
> My Failure to Assimilate, The dream and the waking, and Gone, range from 1992
> to 2001, illuminating a specific time period of Dougherty’s work chosen by
> the artist herself. Accompanied by an essay in part based on her interview
> with Dougherty, Amanda explores her relationship to Dougherty’s experimental
> practice and catalog, as well as how the pieces fit into the broader picture
> of analysis.
