  • Carte Blanche: Ken Jacobs

    By on

    Carte Blanche: Ken Jacobs
    May 2–5, 2013
    MoMA
    11 West 53 Street, New York, NY 10019|

    As one of the founding fathers of American experimental cinema, Ken Jacobs’s impact cannot be overstated. He is a pioneer who, after more than 50 years as a filmmaker, remains as innovative and productive as ever. Correction: at 80 years old he’s more productive than ever, having enthusiastically embraced digital filmmaking. Enormously influential as both a teacher and a font of radical filmmaking ideas, he has prepared several generations of teachers, writers, filmmakers, and discerning audience members to actively engage, with an equal amount of open-minded awe and healthy skepticism, with a media-saturated world. A frequent guest at the Museum—and the subject of a 1996 MoMA retrospective—Jacobs continues to surprise us with amazing inventions that mine the unlimited possibilities of creating with light and moving images. For this installment of MoMA’s Carte Blanche screening series, Jacobs presents films from MoMA’s collection that have influenced and inspired him, alongside selections of his own work—film prints, electronic media pieces, Nervous Magic Lantern performances—that represent key moments in his artistic life. The series also includes the world premiere of Jacobs’s four-part Joys of Waiting for the Broadway Bus cycle of digital works.

    All film notes were written by Ken Jacobs, unless otherwise noted.

    Scratch Projection: Villes, univers urbains
    Tuesday, April 23 2013, 20:30h
    Cinéma Action Christine
    4 Rue Christine, Odéon ou Saint-Michel, 75006 Paris, France

    The city and all its sensations (emotional, olfactory, visual, auditory) has emerged as a major source of inspiration for many artists: writers, painters, photographers, musicians, artists... and filmmakers. After a program devoted to rural landscapes, it seemed natural to continue this exploration of films recently added to the catalogue of Light Cone with a selection of works depicting urban landscapes.

    A beautiful journey that will take us to Modena, Lisbon, New York, San Francisco, Toronto, Montreal, Le Croisic, Tréport and Dieppe.

    The cinema is Jonas Mekas
    April 19-20 2013
    International House Philadelphia
    3701 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104, USA

    "The real history of cinema is invisible history:  
    history of friends getting together, doing the thing they love."
    ~ Jonas Mekas, "Anti-100 Years of Cinema"   

    International House Philadelphia will conclude our yearlong retrospective The Cinema is Jonas Mekas by bringing the renowed director and his friends to the Ibrahim Theater for two days of talks, screenings, and Q&As. Such an event is particularly fitting considering the director's emphasis on documenting his life and the lives of his friends. Many of his films act as extended portraits of artists and the time from which they came, cinematic ruins that provide a stunning compendium for reflection and historical archiving.

    Friday April 19 at 7pm: "Friends and Artists" screening with introduction + Q&A with Jonas Mekas
    - Film Magazine of the Arts (Jonas Mekas, US, 1963, 16mm, color, 20 min.)
    - Scenes of the Life of Andy Warhol (Jonas Mekas, US, 1990, 16mm, color, 36 min.)
    - Street Songs (Jonas Mekas, France, 1983, 16mm, b/w, 11 min.)
    - Zefiro Torna, or Scenes from the Life of George Maciunas (Jonas Mekas, USA, 1992, 16mm, color, 35 min.)

    Saturday April 20 at 2pm: Panel discussion: "My Friends! The Life and Work of Jonas Mekas" (Free admission!)
    Panel discussion with Jonas Mekas, film critic Amy Taubin, French filmmaker Jackie Raynal and curator Ed Halter, moderated by curator/filmmaker Andrew Lampert.
    This discussion will utilize expert panelists, each of whom has a different connection to Mekas’ life and work. They will share their perspectives on his film and video practice, the influence he has had on moving image culture and how he became the central figure in American independent film.

    Saturday April 20 at 7pm: Selections from The 365 Days Project with introduction + Q&A with Jonas Mekas
    (Jonas Mekas, US, 2007, digital, 137 min.)
    This program features selections of the short digital films Mekas posted daily throughout 2007. Combining brand-new footage with older material unearthed and made public for the first time, The 365 Days Project was both a bold leap into the digital world for Mekas and a natural extension of the approach to cinema–small-scale, intimate, and direct–that he had been practicing in his diary films for decades.

    Sarah Pucill: Magic Mirror
    Monday 22 April 2013, 18:30h
    Tate Modern, Starr Auditorium
    Bankside, London SE1 9TG

    - Magic Mirror (Sarah Pucill, UK 2013, 16 mm transferred to digital video, 75 min)

    This screening features the premiere of Sarah Pucill’s new film exploring the work of surrealist Claude Cahun.

    Part essay, part film poem, Magic Mirror translates the startling force of Claude Cahun’s ouvre into a choreographed series of tableaux vivants. Re-staging the French Surrealist’s black and white photographs with selected extracts from her book Aveux Non Avenus (Confessions Untold), the film explores the links between Cahun’s photographs and writings.

    Cahun’s multi-subjectivity, as expressed in both her photographs and book, set the scene for the film, where she dresses and makes her face up in many different ways, swapping identities between gender, age and the inanimate. Three women masquerade as Cahun’s characters: often it is hard to tell them apart. The splitting of identity appears as a double which persists throughout; as literal double through super imposition, as shadow, imprints in sand, reflections in water, mirror or distorting glass. Likewise, the voice is split between differently dressed voices, which at times overlap, and at times are in conversation. The kaleidoscope aesthetic that runs through the film serves not only to weave between image and word but also between the work of Cahun and the films of Sarah Pucill, creating a dialogue between two artists who share similar iconography and concerns.

    The screening will be followed by a discussion between Sarah Pucill and writer, curator and artist David Campany.

    Presented in association with LUX
