"Who Is Lun*na Menoh?" Best Documentary Award f rom CAAMFEST 2021

 


Being meta can be cliche nowadays. As boundaries of fact and fiction become more blurred in the Documentary Renaissance that we are currently living in, this film tests said boundaries, veering in left turns that may seem disingenuous, but in the end, is both a commentary and love letter to an artist who navigates and challenges the absurdity of the modern art scene, and always on her own terms. The jury is honored to announce the documentary award to WHO IS LUN*NA MENOH? - Masashi Niwano, CAAMFEST and Exhibitions Director.

Wallace Berman's Be-Bop Jazz

 

[image error]
My dad, Wallace Berman did this drawing when he was a teenager. Your typical hardcore Jazzier Hipster (of 1940s culture) for the record label Dial Records. There are different color versions of this work, because Dial released two separate compilations of their artists. One being the great Charlie Parker. This, I believe is the first time Parker has been on an album. My dad hung out at Tempo Records on Hollywood Blvd, which focused on the then contemporary be-bop music and artists. Tempo owned Dial and the rest is history.
