Street is an unscripted 61-minute video filmed by James Nares in New York over one week in September, 2011, that recorded everyday people walking through the city and neighborhoods that Nares frequented since his move there from London in the 1970s. The soundtrack was composed and performed by his friend Thurston Moore.
“Street is one of the most heralded works of James Nares’s career and embodies much of what we want visitors to discover in Nares’s work,” said Marcelle Polednik, PhD, Donna and Donald Baumgartner Director, Milwaukee Art Museum. “We are delighted to have Milwaukee Film’s support in presenting this one-of-a-kind event at the Oriental Theater, making it possible for a much larger audience to experience the film and Moore’s live performance of the soundtrack.”
