SUMMARY:Stom Sogo // films and videos // Microscope Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Microscope and other New York friends of Stom Sogo celebra
 te the singular Japanese artist with an evening of his films and video
 s. Sogo’s works are difficult to define, often involving layers and 
 textures and reprocessing, shot mainly on Super 8 or low quality video
 . They look like no one else’s.\n“Total anarchy, pushing the limit
 s, going out/within further and further, marveling at all the beauties
  and laughing at all the absurdities. To me this is what Stom was all 
 about at all times. “ - Raha Raissnia\n“Stom was both cunning and
  tender, even now I use him to measure imposters. He certainly laughed
  at the solemnity with which the courtiers behave. He always wanted mo
 re, again.” – Albert Herter\nSogo moved to New York at the age of 
 18 in 1992 and lived in the city for more than a decade, screening his
  works at venues including tiny basements to institutions such Antholo
 gy Film Archives (where he also worked for some time), MoMA, and the W
 hitney Musuem. He died this summer in Japan.\nThe program for the even
 ing will be selected from the many works Sogo gave to his friends over
  the years, including both better known works as well as those not pre
 viously screened. The night will flexible and can continue for as long
  as the audience desires.\n- – -STOM SOGO was born in 1975 and moved
  to the United States in 1992. He graduated with a BA in art and film 
 from Hunter College, New York, in 2000. Sogo started Open Screenings a
 t Anthology Film Archives in 1995, inspiring a whole crew of filmmaker
 s. His Super8 films and video works have screened at various festivals
  and exhibitions including Rotterdam Film Festival; the Whitney Bienna
 le; Lincoln Center, MoMA, Light Industry, Union Docs, Chicago Filmmake
 rs, Image Forum (Tokyo), Microscope, and many others.\n\nFor more info
