Biography

Michael Gitlin has been making media work since the mid-1980s. His early films and videos were most often engaged with teasing apart the mechanics of narrative. This period of work culminated in the short feature, "Berenice" (1996), which is very loosely adapted from the Edgar Allan Poe story of the same name and was included in the 1997 Whitney Biennial Exhibition.
