Jim Finn

Jim Finn's movies have been called 'Utopian comedies' and 'trompe l'oeil films'. The New York Times wrote, "Steeped in the obsolete language of revolutionary art, Mr. Finn's meticulous, deadpan mockumentaries often play like unearthed artifacts from an alternate universe." His work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. His films have screened at international, avant-garde and underground film festivals like Rotterdam, Valdivia, Bafici, Edinburgh and the New York Film Festival as well as museums, universities, cinematheques and microcinemas. He was born in St. Louis in 1968 and teaches film at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn.
