Film Description:
NEWSDEALER (aka I’M A MAN) 1971 is a Black and White 1/2” open reel Sony portapak video Bill Creston recorded of the newdealer, Micky, on the corner near his loft, Sixth Avenue and 23rd St, NYC. Micky sells papers as he reads from a tattered piece of paper a two-minute essay on what it means to be a “man in human society.” Creston instituted the world’s first formal video classes, at both Cooper Union and The School of Visual Arts, and his students from SVA, notably Chris Cristofaro, are handling the equipment.
