Visual Mischief: a program of video and film from the near and far-out.

The Front - an artist run gallery space in New Orleans - hosts VISUAL MISCHIEF a program of experimental videos and short films by artists from the US and Europe. The works are eclectic and diverse; from conceptual visual exercises to digitally mediated performance narratives.
