Arthur Ginsberg

In 1969 Arthur Ginsberg joined the Bay Area media arts center and communications nexus Electronic Eye; the group then changed its name Video Free America. The center offered regular screenings of video installations, including The Continuing Story of Carel and Ferd (1970-75), and sponsored a visiting artist series with the Vasulkas and Stephen Beck, among others. In the mid-’70s, Ginsberg used his theater training and connections to collaborate with the Chelsea Theater Center on three plays (Kaspar, 1974, and AC/DC and Kaddish, 1977) that incorporated video into the staging.
