Välkommen till en kassettbandsrelease i begränsad upplaga! I samband med hundraårsjubileet av den litauiske poeten och filmskaparen Jonas Mekas, var Index och Ord&Bild värdar för en serie filmvisningar och samtal i tre delar. Med filmen Walden som utgångspunkt lyfte serien fram Mekas roll som möjliggörare, organisatör, länk mellan människor och hängiven konstförespråkare. Dessa samtal släpps nu i en begränsad upplaga på kassettband i samband med den pågående utställningen CALL IT MUSEUM.
Vi tar också med de allra sista exemplaren av Mekasnumret Ord&Bild 5.2022
Welcome to a limited-edition cassette tape release! Noting the centennial of Lithuanian poet and filmmaker Jonas Mekas, Index and Ord&Bild hosted a 3-part screening series.

These conversations will now be released in a limited-edition cassette recording in conjunction with the ongoing exhibition CALL IT MUSEUM.
