New York State Council on the Arts Annual Report 1972-73

"It is too early to say precisely what the art of video comprises, but the Council has been a positive supporter in the search to find out"

NYSCA 1972-73 Film Program

As organizations devoted to the independent cinema grew stronger in 1972-73, the work of independent filmmakers continued to reach wider audiences and receive more serious attention. Council support contributed to the stabilization of such centers as the Millennium Film Workshop and the Circle  Film Forum in New York City and Media Study, Inc. in Buffalo,where film showings concentrate on the work of contemporary film artists. Council grants helped to continue the New American Filmmakers Series at the Whitney Museum of American Art and to expand the services of study centers at the Anthology Film Archives and the film department of The Museum of Modern Art. Support was also continued for the exhibition of theatrical films by grants to The Film Society of Lincoln Center for the tenth New York Film Festival; to Upstate Films, in Rhinebeck, for its presentations of children's programs, and repertory cinema for adult audiences; and to a number of library systems throughout the State for long-term lease of 16mm films for multiple showings in member libraries.

Services provided by the Council-supported Media Equipment Resource Center (MERC) increased appreciably, confirming the long-range economy of free short-term loan of equipment on which the Center is based. The Young Filmaker's Foundation, which administers MERC, has evaluated at almost $500,000 the equipment and services provided over a two-year period for a diverse 'group of more than three hundred individual artists and organizations on the basis of Council support totaling $125,000.

Although funds available for film projects were smaller in 1972-73 than in the two previous years, the variety of programs aided was maintained. Activities supported included movie showings in neighborhood parks in Albany, Binghamton, Buffalo, Ithaca, New York City, and Rochester, and in Nassau and Westchester Counties. Major support also went to workshop movie-making sponsored by such organizations as the Earlville Opera House, the Nineteenth Ward Community Association in  Rochester, The Film Workshop of Westchester, the Upper Hudson Library Federation, and Women's Interart Center and Women Make Movies, both in New York City.

In 1972-73 the Film and Video Bureau, a subsidiary of the  Film Speakers Bureau, administered a long-standing Council program of financial assistance to schools, film societies, and other organizations for a variety of film and video services. The Bureau provided matching funds up to $300 for film rentals, matching funds up to $150 for appearances by film speakers, and partial fees for video artists who demonstrated and talked about their work. Some organizations also received partial support for rental of videotapes. A geographical listing of this activity appears on page 143.

The combination of libraries, museums, community arts  centers and non-commercial theatres exhibiting movies in 1972-73 offered unprecedented opportunities to partake of the extraordinary breadth of the film medium. Council support for film activity in New York State totaled over $500,000 and affected 60 groups and institutions. An alphabetical listing of organizations receiving Council funds for film activities appears on page 69.

NYSCA 1972-73 TV/Media

In 1972-73 the Council continued to encourage in its many aspects this dynamic field of creative activity. The individual grants make it apparent, however, that particular recognition has been given to video production. At the root of this is the fact that the number of applying groups using portable video equipment for community information and cultural documentation continues to increase. The tapes made by the applicants quickly reveal the range and vitality of interest. Among them are a documentary in Chinese on a Chinatown health clinic, used to acquaint residents with its services; a study of identity and communication within a family, in which playback tapes were used to encourage mutual understanding; a series on women artists in their studios, to be viewed in conjunction with exhibitions of their work; a behind-the-scenes documentary of a public television station; and a tape in which residEnts of a home for the aged examine their own community.

Somewhat like the Italian neo-realist films that followed World War II, authenticity, immediacy, and high information content take priority over production values in much of this work. Some of the strongest tapes are produced in real time, in fact, without any editing at all. But in general, production quality of tapes is improving, and at the same time recognitionof video's own aesthetic is emerging.

There is a continuing search for wider video distribution.New York City's public access cable channels remain an important facility, and a three-day Public Access Celebration supported by the Council during the past year drew attention to the opportunity that the public had to create programming for its own needs. Elsewhere throughout the State, Council-supported groups have been able to arrange with local cable stations for transmission of documentary and artistic tapes.

Artists devoted to the use of video gained access through Council assistance to the excellent facilities of the Television Laboratory at WNET, Channel 13 in New York City. An outgrowth of the Artists' Television Workshop founded at WNET two years ago with Council support and expanded with additional grants from the Rockefeller Foundation, the Laboratory is equipped with video and audio synthesizers and one-inch color production and editing facilities. The 1972-73 Council grant allocates eighty days for artists' use of the Laboratory,placing New York in the vanguard of experimental television alongside Boston (with its WGBH facilities) and San Francisco (with National Center for Experiments in Television at KQED).

The TV Lab was the prime production facility for the creation of a thirteen-week series of two-hour programs, each devoted to a different artistic discipline, prepared for cablecast on New York City's two cable television, systems. This experimental series was undertaken not only to encourage presentation of the arts on television, but to insure that arts programming achieves priority cable status so that it is no longer dependent on the once-in-a-while presentation pattern of commercial TV. A significant portion of the programs, shot with half-inch portable equipment, demonstrated the viability of what the broadcast medium had characterized as "inferior hardware." Council grants to the member stations of the New York Network established the Artist-in-Television Program during the past year, providing residency funds for a visiting video artist or filmmaker and enabling staff members to pursue experimental use of electronic space. Support for this and other TV/Media activities totaled some $635,000 in 1972-73. An alphabetical listing of the thirty-seven recipients appears on page 72.
