Jack Smith's Apartment 1990

Film of Jack Smith's apartment starring Penny Arcade before it was reposed by the "evil landlords." 

"Jack Smith's Apartment is a truly important work–-this is the sort of thing that needs to be preserved by art museums, yes, but I would argue Historical societies as well! You dared to preserve something beautiful which was at the risk of destruction and loss to time–-this is one of the highest purposes that cinema is capable of. Watching it on the big screen at MoMA welled up feelings in me that what we do is part of a legacy of art in this city that's so unfathomably bigger than any of us and lives forever if we strive to keep it alive." –- Joe Wakeman
