Video artist Pipilotti Rist mounts a show in The Color of Your Socks.

Microcinema released the The Color of Your Socks:A Year With Pipilotti Rist, a 55-minute documentary film on the noted Swiss video artist, on DVD on June 28, 2011.

The movie follows Ms. Rist as she prepares for a major show at New York’s Museum of Modern Art in 2008. Since winning the Duemila Prize at the Biennale di Venezia in 1997, Rist has established herself as a major presence in video art.

For the first time, she lets a documentary filmmaker into her world, providing insight into her creative process, the development of projects and the collaboration with her team. Pipilotti’s playful personality and colorful creation are captured here by director Michael Hegglin, who provides unique insight into an artist in her element.

No bonus features are on the DVD, which carries a retail price of $24.95.

Microcinema also issued two other titles on leading female modern artists on the same day:

Seducing Time: Selected Prize Winning Videotapes by Lynn Hershman Leeson, 1984-2008 DVD and About Jenny Holzer DVD. They retail for $29.95 and $24.95, respectively.
