Quote:
"Kay Armatage's 1987 documentary film about Joyce Wieland feels like a giant bear hug. Artist on Fire: The Work of Joyce Wieland is a warm, insightful and loving portrait of a passionate, creative and daring woman. Weaving together excerpts from her experimental films, interviews with her contemporaries and friends and candid shots of the artist puttering around her apartment or making paintings, Ms. Armatage reveals the incredible spirit, diversity and commitment of Ms. Wieland without elevating her to untouchable art-goddess status. The 55-minute film is being shown at the Princess Court Cinema on Monday night as the second part of a screening of films honoring [Joyce Wieland's] three-day stay in Kingston as a Queen's University visiting scholar in art and film."
