Redoubt is a comprehensive catalogue of the artist’s newest project, which centers on a two-hour film that creates a complex portrait of the American landscape by layering classical, cosmological, and American myths about humanity’s place in the natural world. In the film, the goddess Diana and her two attendants traverse the rugged terrain of Idaho’s Sawtooth Mountains.

As you can read above, showings of the film will be at Yale University, then off to China. I suspect hoping for a potential showing anyplace near Idaho would be a bit ridiculous…
I wasn’t aware of Barney’s connection to Boise. I thought they were talking about his connection to Björk, I get the two confused so often. Now that I’ve beaten the SWAN completely to death now…
