Heard the #benedictcumberbatch version of the amazing #sollewitt letter to #evahesse? Here's another from the "Eva Hesse" #documentary with Eva's reply and a copy of the original letter as well. Eva voiced by #selmablair and Sol by Patrick Kennedy. See more on our website, link in profile. @zeitgeistfilms @therealselmablair

In 1968, as Eva Hesse was preparing for her first (and only) one person show of sculpture, she made a radical choice not only in her materials, but also in how she would present herself to the world. Artist Ethelyn Honig was on hand to watch the transformation. We celebrate Hesse's life and work this week with the South American premiere in #Brazil at the Rio de Janeiro Int'l Film Festival on Friday, October 7th (one of 4 showings there). More screening info on our website, link in profile. Also playing this week @cornelluniversity in their @cornellcinema on Thursday, October 6 and Saturday, October 8 at 7 PM #festivaldorio #riodejaneiro #evahesse #artdocumentary #cornelluniversity

Eva Hesse’s “Accession” series, created during 1968-69 was one of the most compelling fusions of 1960’s art ideas to arrive on the scene. #Boston art and doc lovers get to see both the film & the art this week! @mfaboston is screening the doc (9/1-9/10) and “Accession IV”, one of the best examples of this series, is now at @icaboston in their newly opened exhibit “First Light”. Director Marcie Begleiter will be in town next week for Q&A at the 5PM Thursday, Sept 8th screening and to give a galley talk about their Hesse works on view at the ICA on Sunday, Sept. 11th at 2PM. This clip from the film features Doug Johns, Hesse’s studio assistant and fabricator as well as archival footage by Dorothy Beskind.

"Fly to London", from Eva Hesse's 1965 datebook. It was 51 yrs ago this week, that the artist arrived in London after spending 15 months in Germany, during which time she began to work in 3 dimensions. She 'returns' tomorrow @icalondon in a feature documentary about her life her work and the art world of #1960s #nyc . #artdocumentary #postminimalism #independent #documentary #london
