    Oporto apresenta #16: Saugus Series"Saugus Series" by Pat O'Neill

    16 mm, color, sound, 18', 1974
    Saw: Chris Casady; Key: Morton Subotnick; Blue Paint: 7-K Color Co; Mix: Don Worthen

    There is no parallel to Pat O'Neill's sui generis approach to film. With him the medium fully attained the realm of fine arts.
    O'Neill is a master of the combinatory work, a collage expert and an elegant frame composer. His films are uncanny essays, breaking down technical boundaries and viewers' assumptions. In Saugus Series the artist aligned seven short films, united by a common soundtrack. "Each film is an evolving "still life," made up of meticulously assembled but spatially contradictory elements "

    By on

    Serpentine Cinema: CINACT
    11  October, 3.30pm.
    Tickets £6/£5

    Dara Birnbaum presents  Technology/Transformation: Wonder Woman (1978-79)

    Dara Birnbaum is known for using video to reconstruct television imagery using as material such archetypal formats as quizzes, soap operas, and sports programmes. Her techniques involve the repetition of images and interruption of flow with text and music.

    Her best known work ‘Technology/Transformation: Wonder Woman’ was made by appropriating imagery from the 1970s TV series Wonder Woman. Through this process Birnbaum isolates and repeats the moment of the "real" woman's symbolic transformation into super-hero.  

    Serpentine Cinema : CINACT is a series of monthly artists’ films  screenings and events at The Gate cinema in Notting Hill. CINACT is named after the title of American artist Henry Flynt’s 2007 cinema manifesto. Each programme focuses on artists who investigate and experiment with the medium of cinema. Tickets available in person at the cinema, on 0871 704 2058 or www.picturehouses.co.uk
