  • Microscope Gallery: Paris-New York

    By on
    European Crisis (General Picture – Episode 9) (David Wharry, 1980)

    Microscope Gallery is very pleased to welcome curator Enrico Camporesi back to the gallery to kick-off the 2016-17 Season of its Event Series with a program of rarely seen historical 16mm films made between 1960 and 1980 by artists Noël Burch, Jakobois, Etienne O’Leary, and David Wharry.

    With this program Camporesi, an Italian researcher based in Paris, continues to focus on the French “experimental” or “artist” films of the period from the viewpoint of their special relationship to artists and works from the US and Canada. Camporesi will be in attendance to introduce the 55-minute screening.

  • MuMaBoX #49 - From one moment to another: Rose Lowder

    By on
    Voiliers et coquelicots (Rose Lowder, 2001)

    "A moment is an area of limited time, but very special because it is based on facts that characterize it as singular. There is perhaps nothing better than trying to film a moment to realize the great difficulty of transmitting it on a screen. Overall tonight's movies were edited in the camera during filming to create visual moments from a succession of images appearing on the screen simultaneously.

    Dates: 

    Wednesday, October 12, 2016 - 18:00 to Thursday, October 13, 2016 - 17:55

    Venue:

  • VIDEO – (Im)materialists

    By on
    Steve hates fish (John Smith, 2016)

    Presented by Evelyn Yard, VIDEO is a screening event highlighting the specific use of video by contemporary artists. The programme focuses less on the polished "moving-image" production, and more on experimentation and the use of more accessible popular video technologies. The screenings will highlight areas where video has been used for its specific characteristics, opening up the rising debate of medium specificity in and around ideas of post-media hybridisation.

  • Another eXperiment by Women Film Festival 2017 Call for Entries

    By on
    Another eXperiment by Women Film Festival

    AXWFF is looking for experimental shorts made by WOMEN that present their own vision of movie making — we want to see something different and unique — challenge us to rethink what “experimental” means on your terms, outside of any standard form. By “film” we refer to a moving image, made with any media, that presents a transformative action or thought. Work that that has been shot by the artist and is under 20 minutes, has a better chance of being accepted as we have limited screening time. Occasionally AXW includes work made by men that has a feminist leaning of some sort or another.

  • Beyond Enchantment: The Films of Lawrence Jordan

    Solar Sight II (Lawrence Jordan, 2012)

    Legendary collage animator Lawrence Jordan presents his most recent film, a tribute to Max Ernst and Luis Buñuel, alongside a selection from his entire career, followed by a live film performance with John Davis.

    “I have always wanted to show the ‘impossible’ in my films, and to astonish the viewer. . . . I often operate on freely associated series of images, finding the trail as I go, not plotting it, though some of the films are meticulously scripted. When I astonish myself, I put it in the film. When I don’t, I leave it out.” - Lawrence Jordan

  • Cineinfinito #4: Joseph Bernard

    By on

    Since the 1970s, multimedia artist Joseph Bernard has created over 100 silent Super 8 films that work to radically expand our understanding of cinema as an expressive form. His work offers a rich contribution to traditions of formalist and experimental filmmaking and has often been discussed in terms of—but remains steadfastly irreducible to—qualities of rhythm and color as well as the influences of abstract expressionism, photography, documentary, self-portraiture, and collage. - James R. Hook
