BLITZ #8: Burn

By Marcos Ortega on Wed, 17/01/2018 - 03:15

A programme curated by Alison Nguyen

A screening series of film and video artists who employ modes of appropriation, dematerialization, and electronic signal manipulation in their moving image works. These pieces subvert the visual codes of mass media, repositioning material such as commercials, pornography, and Hollywood films. In burning contemporary archives, these artists create new texts that challenge our way of seeing dominant social constructs.

For the 10th and final event of "Dreamlands: Expanded", a series of expanded cinema events organized by Microscope in collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American Art as part of the exhibition "Dreamlands: Immersive Cinema and Art, 1905-2016", we are thrilled to present a new multi-projection and sound performance "The Owl Flies at Twilight" composed by the Optipus collective & orchestra in its largest configuration to date featuring 28 artists.

New York collective or “media laboratory” Optipus, led by Bradley Eros, hints at the historic demise of analog media and the wisdom resulting from this awareness in their new work titled “The Owl Flies at Twilight”, referencing G.W.F. Hegel’s famous quote.

Seeing Double: Films by Antonia Kuo and Lily Jue Sheng

By Marcos Ortega on Mon, 08/08/2016 - 03:35

The Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto (LIFT) is pleased to present Seeing Double: Films by Antonia Kuo and Lily Jue ShengKuo and Sheng in attendance

Antonia Kuo and Lily Jue Sheng are visiting artists from Brooklyn collaborating at LIFT from July 4 to August 17. This screening will present a number of their single and dual channel 16mm films—including Chromoflux, Seeing Double and Point, Line, Plane—as well as showcasing the work that they've done while in residency at LIFT. Their films explore the fleeting temporality of an immersive optical experience, emphasizing oscillating, flickering compositions that exploit the frame-by-frame structure of 16mm film through in-camera and stop-motion collage animation and mirror the visual world of their parallel practices in print-making and photography. The frenetic pace of shifting abstractions create visual unrest, mirroring the unstable flux inherent in natural systems, spanning all scales of matter.

Dates:
Wednesday, August 10, 2016 - 20:00 to Thursday, August 11, 2016 - 19:55
Venue:
Cinecycle - Toronto, Canada
