The Infernal Dream of Mutt and Jeff<br />
April 8–May 3<br />
The Infernal Dream of Mutt and Jeff, a gallery installation by Zoe Beloff<br />
, recreated a mid-20th-<br />
century film studio designed to produce industrial films. Beloff, the Suzanne Young Murray<br />
Fellow at the <strong>Radcliffe</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> in 2012–2013 and a professor in the Department of Media Studies<br />
at Queens College, says, “I explore what might be called the dream life of technology. I attempt<br />
to reanimate the remains from cinema’s past—discarded films, old projectors—to set them in<br />
motion so that they might speak again, but differently.”<br />
