Terri Hanlon (born 1953) is an American media artist. She has directed and produced numerous video and performance works in collaboration with multidisciplinary artists.

Life and education

edit

Hanlon grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. She received a BA in sculpture at the California College of the Arts and an MA in the pioneering Interdisciplinary Arts program at San Francisco State University. Hanlon currently lives lives in the Hudson Valley, New York with her husband, composer David Behrman.

Work

edit

In the late 1970's Hanlon co-founded the San Francisco touring performance art group The EVA Sisters with artist Fern Friedman and choreographer Deborah Slater, which toured over a five year period with a repertory of six pieces.[1]

The EVA Sisters collaborated with composer David Behrman to produce an early interactive performance art piece, Looking Past the Future, in 1979, for which they received an NEA New Music Theater Grant.[2] Friedman and Hanlon collaborated with composers Paul DeMarinis and David Behrman, and performer Anne Klingensmith to produce the record She's-A-Wild, along with expanded live interactive performance versions in San Francisco and New York.

In 1980 her collaborative piece,  E(L)(FF)USIVE with Fern Friedman was published in Text-Sound Texts.[3] This project was first published in 1978 with Robert Gonsalves and Paul Wilson in Ear Magazine as a “Jello Disk", a flexible sound sheet which could play on a turntable at 33+1⁄3 rpm.

In 1981, Hanlon moved to New York City, where she made her final performance art piece, This Setup No Picnic (1982), created in collaboration with Frankie Mann, Fern Friedman and Julie Lifton. In New York, she created a series of short music videos based on various aspects of life on the East and West Coasts. Music by Frankie Mann and Rhys Chatham was featured in several of these videos, which were shown on PBS, various New York City downtown nightclubs such as CBGB and the Mudd Club, and in international music and film festivals. Her short pieces You Pay Rent and I Should Have Stayed Home incorporated pioneering interactive software by software designer Jonathan Cohen.

In the 1990s, Hanlon began to make larger-scale video works which incorporated the camera work of Howard Grossman and Marc Kroll, choreographers Eric Barsness and Carol Clements, and music by New York downtown composers. Inversion of Solitude (1993) with sound score by composer Frankie Mann and computer graphics by designer Matthew Duntemann was shown on PBS, at the New York Film Festival and at the American Film Institute. Meringue Diplomacy (2010) was inspired by the life of the great chef Antonin Carême, premiered at The Alliance Française in New York, and features music of composers David Behrman, Jacques Bekaert, Jon Gibson, Barbara Held, John King, and Laetitia Sonami, with choreography by Carol Clements, and perfomances by Clements and Eric Barsness. Meringue Diplomacy[4] was shown at Basilica in Hudson, NY and in a tenth anniversary screening at the Serralves Museum in Porto, Portugal.[5]

Hanlon has received numerous commissions for portraits. A 2001 show in Barcelona featured Iris print portraits of the characters of Meringue Diplomacy.[6] In 2007 and 2008 Hanlon directed a series of composer portraits for Roulette TV[7], reviewed in the British music magazine The Wire.[8]

In 2016 Hanlon produced the documentary The Frog In The Pond [9] about San Francisco artist and art collector Nina Van Rensselaer, which premiered in 2019 at Mills College in Oakland, California.
