Shoot Shoot Shoot, London Film-Makers' Co-operative - The First Decade

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 11/03/2019 - 07:27

The London Film-Makers' Co-operative (LFMC) was founded in October 1966, and soon grew from its beginnings as a film-viewing group to become one of the major centres of a worldwide network of avant-garde film culture. In contrast to similar co-operative endeavours, the LFMC's activity was not limited to distribution – within a few years it was also running a regular program in its own cinema and, most notably, it democratized the means of production by establishing a film workshop that enabled filmmakers to control every stage of the creative process.

Reinscriptions for Line Describing A Cone

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 15/01/2018 - 04:26

Part of a series of works collectively referred to as solid light films, Anthony McCall’s Line Describing a Cone sees the fog-thickened beam of a 16mm projector transformed into a three-dimensional moving sculpture. As the beam is viewed from various vantage points within the space it transforms, shifts, and demands attentive observation.

Cineclube: Imagem-Pensamento - Fall 2014

By Ж (kk) . on Mié, 15/10/2014 - 03:15

The diversity of thought with cinema. Thus the text as an image, the relations between image and sound, are part of personal films with an autobiographical dimension. Themes such as the contemporary consumer society, advertising, representation of women and neocolonialism are the focus of several sessions. While others show the film in a situation where celluloid and video speak their differences through the film as sculpture. The issue of the media, placing film and video in different sites, ranging from theater to the gallery, will also be addressed in the sessions. The films will be screened with subtitles in Portuguese and those will be available for filmmakers, and / or distributors.

Phenomenologies of Projection, Aesthetics of Transition

By Marcos Ortega on Mar, 20/12/2011 - 16:55
Phenomenologies of Projection, Aesthetics of Transition
Anthony McCall 1970-79, 2001—
Exhibition and Symposium
Friday and Saturday, February 24 & 25, 2012
University of Chicago Film Studies Center

Using atmospheric haze and film projectors, artist Anthony McCall creates beautiful, visually captivating light sculptures that explore ideas of architecture, duration and embodiment. Invoking comparisons to natural formations like waterfalls and moonlight, McCall’s slowly moving luminous projections invite visitors to step into the light, using their bodies to alter the shimmering forms.

Experience the subtle poetics of McCall’s rarely exhibited 'Solid Light’ films at a special two-day event at the University of Chicago, featuring works on both celluloid film and digital media. This exhibition and its related symposium turn a critical spotlight onto key moments in an artistic career that has moved with singular coherence between the aesthetics of an analog and a digital media paradigm.

The installation You and I, Horizontal (2006, dv) will open the event at The Experimental Station, a community arts incubator in Hyde Park, Chicago on February 24 & 25, 6-10 p.m. A special screening of Line Describing a Cone (1973, 16mm) and its digital remake Line Describing a Cone 2.0 (2010, dv) will take place at the installation site on alternate evenings. This exhibit is free and open to the public.

On Saturday, February 25, Anthony McCall will present an artist talk at an afternoon symposium dedicated to his work, then participate in a roundtable with a panel of distinguished curators and scholars. The Symposium will take place at the Film Studies Center, 5811 S. Ellis Ave, University of Chicago. Reservations are recommended, and can be made at filmstudiescenter.uchicago.edu.

For more information on the exhibit and symposium call 773-702-8596 or visit filmstudiescenter.uchicago.edu.
