> > Dear Framework Friends, > I just learned the sad news from his family, that pioneering Chicano experimental filmmaker Willie Varela passed away on Saturday, February 24th. Willie made a large body of Super 8mm and digital work over a span of more than fifty years, and he had a deeply passionate, total dedication to the field. His work ranged from subtle portraits of his family life, reflections on his home town and dark narrative visions of contemporary culture. Willie lived in El Paso, Texas, for most of his life, and was rarely able to travel, but he shared his work on many occasions in several cities of the country. Those of us who knew him will miss him greatly. With best wishes to you all, Steve Anker
