LA Times “Science + social justice + magic. The spellbinding formula of artist Glenn Kaino”

Glenn Kaino is an American conceptual artist and film maker based in Los Angeles a trained sculptor with a background in computer science. With long term friend and collaborator Afshin Shahidi, Kaino recently released film With Drawn Arms which is an intimate conversation with Tommie Smith, the gold medalist who is known for raising his fist after accepting a medal at the '68 Olympic games in protest of racial inequality. Tommie Smith reflects on the moment that helped define a movement. In The Light Of A Shadow upholds and projects Kaino’s progressive values seeking justice and change in a time when social voices like Kaino’s, for exposing inequality, have never been so important.
