Benning's videos, which she began to make in the late 1980s with a Fisher-Price Pixelvision 2000 \"toy camera,\" are known for their explorations of loneliness, alienation, gender ambiguity and her own developing lesbian identity. Benning's recent paintings--flat, illustrative, exuberant--are playful, imaginary portraits that address similar themes. \u003ci\u003ePlay Pause\u003c\/i\u003e, created entirely from hundreds of Benning's drawings, offers a rhythmic and affectionate view of contemporary life in a city's streets, parks and gay bars. Includes written contributions by Eileen Myles and Aleksandar Hemon, and a conversation with the New York painter Amy Sillman.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wexner Center\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781881390411\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.75h x 8.52w x 0.51d","brand":"Sadie Benning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38014758518965,"sku":"9781881390411","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_8e22f85d-be39-4014-9256-fb1d8ed10df7.jpg?v=1609150000","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/sadie-benning-suspended-animation-9781881390411","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
