Cinema Parenthèse and iMAL present the program Gunvor Nelson - Collage Films. Nelson was born in 1931 in Stockholm, but grew up in the small town of Kristinehamn, Sweden. After studying art in Stockholm, she moved to San Francisco in 1953 where she studied and later taught art and film at San Francisco State University (1969–70) and the San Francisco Art Institute (1970–1992).
Witness this collection of wild, weird, transgressive and experimental short films by A new wave of Local underground filmmakers at the seventh NFU group show. It will be a night of new surrealist, expressionist and abstract shorts where you can meet and discover the next David Lynch or Maya Deren. Come to LA's Arts District to find out what's been brewing in Hollywood's dark dark shadow.
As part of its online screening series, VISIONS presents, in collaboration with Présence Autochtone, The Violence of a Civilization Without Secrets by Zack Khalil, Adam Khalil & Jackson Polys, with an original text by Ghada Sayegh.

Please join us on Thursday, March 23, 2023, at 7:30pm at Counterpath (7935 East 14th Ave.) for real time cartographic improvisations using projected, manipulated digital maps by Eric Theise, in live improvisatory collaboration with Denver-based guitarist and sound artist Carl Ritger, whose prepared lap steel and modular sampler approach will provide a deeply textural counterpoint to the visual wash of street grids, land masses, water bodies, and curiosities from built and natural environments. Saturated colors and the subtlest of tints.
