“Doing the ‘New York’ video was one of the most special times in my brain,” Da Corte adds, making it no surprise that he would invite Clark to do a second collaboration on his own turf, in the gallery.

Kurt Vile outsmarts the ticket-happy parking cops in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the video for his new song, “Loading Zones.”

“[St. Vincent] won by a combination of good timing and color-blocking.”

“I think Annie’s New York is the New York of my dreams-one that is blurry and fractured, dreamy and flat,” Da Corte said in a press statement. “It is the Toontown to my Hollywood. It is beautiful but slightly out of reach.”

“I want a swan as a pet now, thanks to St. Vincent’s new music video for her single, “New York,” which honestly makes me well up every time I hear it.”

“In a few shots, a person wearing ’80s-style pink tights and a leopard-print leotard appears bent through a grey wall, ass pointed toward the camera. (Absurdist humor is another characteristic of both St. Vincent and Da Corte’s work.)”

“The music video’s director Alex Da Corte fills us in on what went down behind the scenes.”

“Directed by visual artist Alex Da Corte, the clip takes place in what Da Corte describes as a “blurry and fractured, dreamy and flat” version of New York City.”

“Exploring the formal potential of artifacts of consumer culture, Da Corte twists their immediate affordance so they can unfold new symbolic power—now as sculptural objects in his videos and installations, for example.”
