The Center for Contemporary Art will show three video works by Aptos, California-based artist Enid Baxter Blader. A filmmaker, musician, and painter, Blader’s work has exhibited at the Smithsonian in Washington DC, Sundance in Park City, Utah, and the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Currently an Assistant Professor of Digital Cinema at CSU, Monterey Bay, she also lectures internationally on apocalyptic media. The work offers the viewer a glimpse of everyday apocalypses, which she defines as the ending of the familiar and the beginning of something new.
In Local 909er (16 mm film and digital video, 30 minutes), Blader examines the rapid suburbanization and transformation of the geographic area of Inland Empire in Southern California. The fast-growing population has resulted in master-planned communities, mega malls and “McMansions” replacing the once vast expanse of vineyards, orange groves and cow fields.
Secret Apocalyptic Love Diaries (video, 12 minutes) is an ongoing episodic series that Blader shot with her “Frankenstein Camera” made of parts from old TV cameras. She describes Diaries as a “small-time apocalypse” about relationships.
An excerpt of Blader’s Planet Ord will be shown that documents the de-commissioned Fort Ord Army Base, which is now the site of the CSU, Monterey Bay campus.
