DISTRIBUTION MATTERS: 'WHAT DOES SHE WANT?': Adriane Jenik Previews a Unique Home Video Series

by Adriane Jenik

Screen, Fall 1987, pp. 70-72

This article discusses home video recorders, public space, and (media) representation of femininity. Focusing on the ghettoization of women artists; exploring new forms of independent production and autonomous distribution, the What Does She Want home video library series is a project partially funded by grant endowments to support "the development of new audiences for experimental work within the home market".
