| Video Discription | "In the early spring of 1987, David’s friend Steve Doughton returned to New York. Together, they spontaneously made the film, ""Around Clown."" Doughton recalls: “I brought with me the Minolta Super 8 camera my father had bought for me in 8th grade. David and I met for lunch at KK’s, the Polish diner on 1st Avenue. After lunch, we walked to David’s place; he was living on East 13th street, in the same building as Richard Kern. On the way we saw some 3-D lenticular material with a polka dot pattern displayed on rack outside a boutique on Avenue A. David picked two of them up and started waving them around, so I shot it. When we got to his apartment we decided to shoot something on his roof. David grabbed a plastic clown head and a stuffed rattlesnake for wardrobe and props. On the roof David donned the mask and started doing this silly dance, we laughed so hard our stomachs hurt. I suggested I do a continuous 360 degree pan and he would appear in the distance doing the dance. David agreed so we did the shot. I exposed what was left on the roll. When I edited the film, I cut the polka dot shot onto the end. David never saw the film. I screened it publicly for the first time at his memorial service at St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery. Years later I used a track from David Markey’s cassette release “Devil’s Day Off” as the score. I also like the silent version so there are two versions of the film. Shot on Kodak Ektachrome Type G. The camera original is now in the film archives of The Museum Of Modern Art.” David Woinarowicz and Steve Doughton, Around Clown, 1987 Music by David Markey. Super 8 on digital video, 3:00 min. qz44Kv5UWCg |
