mind on the line

On the invitation of WRO Center for Media Art from Wroclaw Gary Hill is
visiting Poland in the beginning of December. We are going to present the
new performative work mind on the line, created by long time collaborators
Gary Hill, George Quasha and Charles Stein, accompanied, on this occasion,
by a young video-artist Aaron Miller and Wroclaw born poet Dorota Czerner.
The performance is going to emerge on-site in Wroclaw out of new and
pre-recorded visual, textual and audial elements during a process of
workshops and will be premiered in the baroque building of The Ossolinski
National Institute on December 4, 2004.
Hill has concieved an extensive program of his video works called Personal
Anthology, which will be screened in Wroc½aw on December 1-2, 2004.

After its premiere mind on the line will be shown in Lodz (5.12.) and Poznan
(7.12.) where on December 8, 2004 Gary Hill receives the honorary doctorate
of Academy of Fine Arts in Poznan, Department of Multimedia Communication.
In recognition of Hill's achievements for development of this domain of art,
the Senate of Academy awarded the artist the title of doctor honoris causa.
He will be the first international artist, honoured with this title by
Poznanian Academy.
