Modern TV

Experience the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth's film and video collection from home with this new program launching May 16. Every other Saturday at 7pm, free screenings of videos by leading contemporary artists will be live-streamed.

On May 16, Mark Bradford's video Dancing in the Street, 2019
The video will be screened continuously from 7–10pm. It shows a performance of the song by Martha and the Vandellas of the same name being projected onto buildings and fences across Los Angeles at night. The song debuted in 1964 and was adopted as a civil rights anthem and call to action during the Watts riots the following year. This work is in the Museum's permanent collection and is in the Modern's current exhibition Mark Bradford: End Papers.

On May 30: Mario García Torres, The Schlieren Plot, n.d.
More screenings to be announced at a later date.

Though the galleries remain temporarily closed, you're invited to connect through online resources and special events at themodern.org/online-learning-programs.
