Intellectual Properties

'Intellectual Properties' is a noir about romantic meetings, betrayal, surveillance and intrigue. But it is also a deconstruction of these genre tropes. As in much of his practice, Adams examines the intersections between personal lives and mass media in a self-referential and ironic style. The artist has constructed a multi-layered text that asks if linear narratives, intellectual property, and holistic experience can exist in a media-saturated, decentered, and fragmented social realm.

Ramrod

A cattle-vs.-sheepman feud loses Connie Dickason her fiance, but gains her his ranch, which she determines to run alone in opposition to Frank Ivey, "boss" of the valley, whom her father Ben wanted her to marry. She hires recovering alcoholic Dave Nash as foreman and a crew of Ivey's enemies. Ivey fights back with violence and destruction, but Dave is determined to counter him legally... a feeling not shared by his associates. Connie's boast that, as a woman, she doesn't need guns proves justified, but plenty of gunplay results.
