Her novels include ''I Love Dick'', ''Aliens & Anorexia'', ''Torpor'', and ''Summer of Hate''. ''Video Green'', Kraus' first non-fiction book examines the explosion of late 1990s art by high-profile graduate programs that catapulted Los Angeles into the center of the international art world. Her films include ''Gravity & Grace'', ''How To Shoot A Crime'', and ''The Golden Bowl, or, Repression''. == Biography == Kraus spent her childhood in Connecticut and New Zealand. After obtaining a BA at a young age from Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, Kraus worked as a journalist for five years, and then moved to New York. Kraus was aged 21 when she arrived in New York and began studying with actor Ruth Maleczech and director Lee Breuer, whose studio in the East Village was called ReCherChez.〔Guthrie, Kayla. "(Interview: Performing Is Storytelling: Q+A with Chris Kraus )." ''Art in America''. 2011 June 22.〕 Part of the city's then-burgeoning art scene, Kraus made films and video art and staged performances and plays at many venues. In the late 1970s she was a member of The Artists Project, a City-funded public service venture of painters, poets, writers, filmmakers and dancers. Her work as a performance and video artist satirized the Downtown scene's gender politics and favored literary tropes, blending theatrical techniques with Dada, literary criticism, social activism, and performance art. Kraus continued to make films through the mid-1990s. Since 2007 Chris Kraus is a professor of film at European Graduate School in Saas-Fee, Switzerland.〔 She now lives in Los Angeles. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chris Kraus (American writer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
