On Sat. Oct. 1, A.T.A. Gallery's OTHER CINEMA presents the NorCal
premiere of Vanessa Renwick's "Lovejoy",a 20-min. memorial to murals
made in the '40s by Oregon switchman Tom Stefopoulos. The city of
Portland commissioned the folk documentarian to record the
restoration of these marvelous columns, featured in Gus Van Sant's
Drugstore Cowboy.
Anchoring the program is Bill Daniel's 50-min. rogue doc on Hobo
graffiti "Bozo Texino", the result of a 10-year quest hopping
freights with super 8 and 16 mm cameras.
ALSO on the program is Erick Lyle's slide history of wet-cement
"sidewalk engravings."
All three folk documentarians will be here in the flesh!!!
PLUS: People's chef Mark Brecke ladles out free hobo stew whilst
Swamp Train evoke and emote the bluesy notes of the life nomadic.
