Katherine Bauer
Katherine Bauer works primarily with 16mm film and its material potential for sculpture, photography and installation. Much of her work involves mythologies, folklores, and narratives adapted from her travels across the United States and Southeastern Asia. The celluloid of film gives bodily presence to these narratives and enacts their themes of decay, eroticism and horror. Her most recent film is an epic apocalyptic erotic thriller about crystallization. Katherine received a BA from Bard College where she majored in Film and Electronic Arts. She is currently working on a MFA from NYU in Studio Art where she also teaches 16mm filmmaking. Her work has been shown across the United States in a variety of venues and galleries. Her films are available for rent from The Film-Makers Cooperative in New York City. www.katbmovies.com
