It’s Jenny’s World, We’re Just Living In It
10th Anniversary screenings of Ryan Trecartin’s Priority Innfield movies (Center Jenny, Junior War, Comma Boat, Item Falls), which serve as profound eulogies to the variegated facets of 20th-century youth subculture, culture, and the analog milieu. 👺
Trecartin's oeuvre operates within the realm of an intricately woven narrative tapestry, fundamentally rooted in the seismic shifts that the advent of the Internet has wrought upon our modes of world engagement and interpersonal relations. 🌐🌎😺🧡

“Ryan Trecartin’s movies unfold like futuristic fever dreams. Collaborating with his cast, Trecartin’s layered aesthetic reveals high-definition uncanniness, wherein digital life dynamics and gamesmanship merge with pop culture histrionics and banality. In CENTER JENNY, part of Trecartin’s presentation at the 55th Venice Biennale, his characters continuously evolve towards a post-human realm through reality show hermeneutics, prosumer rhetoric, and collegiate rituals.” — VDROME
