  • Poetic Deconstruction: Workshop by Péter Lichter & Bori Máté at Primanima

    By on

    The aim of this unique experimental film workshop at Primanima Festival of First Animations is to get the participants acquainted with the technique of making a celluloid-based abstract film. During the workshop, the participants will work with 35 mm celluloid strips and colour them with different paints and felt tip markers. The strips used for the workshop have been buried in the ground and the procedure partially decomposed the images on them.

  • Experimental & Expanded Animation: Current Perspectives & New Directions

    By on

    This conference aims to reach further into understandings of what experimental animation is and has been since Robert Russett and Cecile Starr defined this territory in 1976.  Of the subsequent multiple investigations since, few have claimed to research experimental animation specifically as Hamlyn and Smith have sought to do in their volume: Experimental and Expanded Animation: Current Perspectives & New Directions, the recent publication of which has catalysed this research day.  This event aims to further focus our project and to develop findings from the publication through more immediate methods of open dialogue and/or film practice.

  • Experimental and Expanded Animation. New Perspectives and Practices

    This book discusses developments and continuities in experimental animation that, since Robert Russet and Cecile Starr’s Experimental Animation: Origins of a New Art (1976), has proliferated in the context of expanded cinema, performance and live ‘making’ and is today exhibited in galleries, public sites and online. With reference to historical, critical, phenomenological and inter-disciplinary approaches, international researchers offer new and diverse methodologies for thinking through these myriad animation practices.

  • Edge of Frame: Signal to Noise

    By on

    Edge of Frame started life as a blog on experimental animation written by artist and curator Edwin Rostron, and last year grew into a boundary-hopping weekender at the Whitechapel Gallery and Close-Up Cinema. We asked Rostron to put together a special Optical Sound-inspired programme of shorts, and he’s delivered the goods with a selection of extraordinary experiments exploring sound and music in various interesting ways.

    Dates:

  • West Coast Experimental Animation: Adam Beckett and His Peers

    By on
    Evolution of the Red Star (Adam Beckett, 1973)

    In the 1970s, Adam Beckett created a body of work that includes some of the most innovative and awe-inspiring experiments in animation. Tragically, his life was cut short at age 29, but the films he left behind remain inimitable achievements of a visionary imagination. This program presents some of Beckett’s greatest works alongside pieces by his mentor Jules Engel and peers including Beth Block and Sky-David, offering a glimpse at the staggering creativity of this too little known school of animation.

    Dates: 

    Friday, March 3, 2017 - 19:00

    Venue: 

    Logan Center for the Arts - Chicago, United States

  • Independent Frames: Underground Cartoons

    By on
    Quasi at the Quackadero (Sally Cruikshank, 1975)

    Marv Newland’s early counterculture animation Bambi Meets Godzilla stages a brief, irreverent encounter between the two characters, whereas Standish Lawder’s Runaway subjects a short cartoon loop to a series of hypnotic mediations and interventions.

    Dates: 

    Sunday, February 19, 2017 - 17:00 to 19:00

    Venue: 

    Tate Modern - London , United Kingdom

  • Independent Frames: Introspection

    By on
    Voices (Joanna Priestley, 1985)

    ​American animators in the 1970s and 1980s often turned their attention inward, producing personal films that corresponded to the deeply introspective diary filmmakers that formed a key part of the New American Cinema in the previous decade. Representing oneself in a mediated fashion – not only through the moving image but graphically through animation – became particularly important during this period in which more women were active in the field of animation than ever before.

    Dates: 

    Sunday, February 19, 2017 - 14:30 to 16:30

    Venue: 

    Tate Modern - London , United Kingdom

  • Independent Frames: Bodymania

    By on
    Desire Pie (Lisa Crafts, 1976)

    From morphing bodies engaged in rapturous copulation (Desire Pie) to disembodied parts (The Club, Seed Reel), artists respond to the waning sexual revolution and the women’s movement, expressing agency and stimulation while at the same time depicting complex forms of desire.

    Dates: 

    Saturday, February 18, 2017 - 17:00 to 19:00

    Venue: 

    Tate Modern - London , United Kingdom

  • Independent Frames: Shape and Structure

    By on
    Object Conversation (Paul Glabicki, 1985)

    While structural film was the dominant form within the avant-garde tradition at the dawn of the 1970s, animators used shape and structure in a variety of ways that differentiated their works. Robert Russett composed geometric patterns and colour sequences in complex rhythms to create his pulsing, abstract films. Paul Glabicki created incisive, analytical works that explored objects through image, language, form and movement, drafting stunningly complicated sequences by hand.

    Dates: 

    Saturday, February 18, 2017 - 14:30 to 16:30

    Venue: 

    Tate Modern - London , United Kingdom
