Quote:
"[Joyce Wieland] is in Toronto for a retrospective of her work at York University's Glendon College. She also showed several of her films—Catfood, Sailboat, 1933 and Rat Life and Diet in North America—at a screening at Film House this week. They're not the kind of films you'd expect from a woman. They're funny and political, the sort of thing a Frank Zappa or an Andy Warhol might come up with. And they reveal her intense concern about the state the world is in."
-- Melinda McCracken
