Others that come to mind: Tacita Dean's more recent work on various artists. Gunvor Nelson Dorothy Wiley's 'Five Artists: BillBobBillBillBob.' Not sure how available these might be in India, but it's worth a try and they weren't mentioned before. I think the Gunvor Nelson/Dorothy Wiley is available via Canyon Cinema at least. -Kate ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
