Artist in Person Philadelphia-based artist Peter d'Agostino was born in 1945 "between the bombs"-that is, between the first test at Alamogordo in July and the bombing of Hiroshima less than a month later. His new work, Traces, which also appears as a two-channel installation in the Theater Gallery, collides the public history of the Atomic Age and the personal memory of growing up in its shadow. The tape is a melange of recognizable cultural images-the Enola Gay, Life Magazine, Robert Oppenheimer-interspersed with personal fragments: home movies and a return to his childhood neighborhood. Woven throughout this assemblage are glimpses of the annual Peace Conference Ceremonies at Hiroshima in which paper lanterns are set afloat on the rivers, each inscribed with the name of someone who died as a result of the bombing. Traces is a litany for a past that could nurture as well as destroy. Several other works will also be screened.-Steve Seid Traces (1995, 15 mins).
