On Worker-Occupied Factories in Venezuela

Now-Time Venezuela: Oliver Ressler, Dario Azzellini, and Chris Gilbert in Conversation
March 26, Berkeley Art Museum Theater, 2pm

Together with Matrix Curator Chris Gilbert, Dario Azzellini and Oliver Ressler will discuss their new video project on occupied factories in Venezuela. The project initiates the year-long Matrix cycle "Now-Time Venezuela: media along the path of the Bolivarian process." The cycle will present works that both document and contribute to the process of political, cultural, and economic transformation in contemporary Venezuela.

VENEZUELA FROM BELOW will be shown again in Oakland on Tuesday, but without the presenters. See <http://www.indybay.org/news/2006/02/1800264.php> for all these programs.
