Sadie Benning is not only among the countrys most respected and influential video artists, she also broke cultural ground as a founding member of the multimedia feminist band Le Tigre. Suspended Animation, the first monograph on the artist and the catalogue of her first U.S. museum exhibition, introduces Bennings paintings and Play Pause, an ambitious new twochannel video installation. Bennings videos, which she began to make in the late 1980s with a FisherPrice Pixelvision 2000 toy camera, are known for their explorations of loneliness, alienation, gender ambiguity and her own developing lesbian identity. Bennings recent paintingsflat, illustrative, exuberantare playful, imaginary portraits that address similar themes. Play Pause, created entirely from hundreds of Bennings drawings, offers a rhythmic and affectionate view of contemporary life in a citys streets, parks and gay bars. Includes written contributions by Eileen Myles and Aleksandar Hemon, and a conversation with the New York painter Amy Sillman.
