  • Light Movement 7: Jonas Mekas

    By on
    Walden: Diaries, Notes, and Sketches (Jonas Mekas, 1969)

    This month we are delighted to be presenting Walden, a major work of the late 60's by Jonas Mekas, widely regarded as one of the central figures of the American underground movement and more recently recognised further afield with major retrospectives at galleries and institutions worldwide.

    Walden: Diaries, Notes, and Sketches is in many ways a quintessential Mekas film, taking it's energy and spirit from the celebration of life in the present moment, through homages and portraits of close friends and colleagues (including many familiar names from avant guard cinema and the arts in general). Within this outward looking eye and heartfelt sentiment, at the centre of all its flux and energy is the inner life of the poet, reflecting in solitude on both the inherent beauty and the essentially transitory and temporary nature of all things.

  • Altered States

    By on

    Toby Tatum & Mark French are proud to announce the programme for Altered States.

    Altered States is an immersive multi-screen show of the latest experimental film and video work curated by the Hastings-based filmmakers Toby Tatum and Mark French. Altered States features moving image by over seventy of the most fascinating international moving image practitioners working today, much of it unseen in the UK.

    This exhibition includes the fruits of a worldwide search for works that articulate film’s power to initiate heightened states of consciousness, transporting us across the threshold into a mind-expanding visionary state. The programme features a selection of cutting edge films that imaginatively reshape the base materials of the everyday world into something rich and strange.

  • VISIONS presents: Mapping The Intimate: The Films Of Josh Weissbach

    By on

    Filmmaker present |16mm prints | english audio | 60 mins

    "Weissbach’s films are impeccably composed and paced, with an airiness that allows for both tension and relief. There is an inscrutable intensity to much of the work, using the same breath to express both data and drama, as Jack Webb says just the feelings." - Jesse Malmed, Nightingale Cinema

    PUSINKY´99 (Martin Klapper, 1999)

    Kino Palais, con la colaboración de Pablo Mazzolo y Benjamín Ellenberger, presentan un programa especial con películas del reconocido realizador experimental checo Martin Klapper. Proyectadas en su formato original y con la presencia del realizador en forma exclusiva.

    “Una selección de mis películas del período 1992 – 2002, documentando diferentes esfuerzos y aproximaciones para encontrar un nuevo vocabulario cinemático, mediante el uso de material encontrado, montaje en cámara y una amplia variedad de técnicas radicales (muchas de ellas inventos propios) para re-trabajar la superficie del film mismo. Estas técnicas incluyen sobreimpresiones, rayados, grabados, coloreado, teñido, pintura, Batik o revelado casero, entre otros diversos tratamientos químicos y mecánicos. Todos los films son originales en Super 8 mm y 16 mm” (Martin Klapper).

  • Screens/Selves/Séance: Experimental Films of Tzuan Wu

    By on
    Yi-Ren (The Person of Whom I Think) (Tzuan Wu, 2015)

    Screens/Selves/Séance: Experimental Films of Tzuan Wu is a series of solo screenings of experimental filmmaker Tzuan Wu. The title refers to the inward-looking, self- conscious yet self-reflexive tendency of experimental cinema. Filmmakers in the history of Experimental/ Avant-garde cinema tend to investigate into the self/selves to achieve a personal vision(s) on/against the world. Learning through the lens of the heretics, the Hermetics, the punks, and the other, these no-budget works represent the first 10 years of Tzuan’s filmmaking on the path of his cross disciplinary cinematic pedagogy with hybrid influences.

  • Joseph Cornell: White Magic Filmmaker

    By on

    Joseph Cornell was a cinephile, film collector, filmmaker and pioneering American assemblage artist. He called his work ‘white magic’ to distinguish it from the darker arts of the surrealists with whom he had a dialogue. From the late 30s onward he reworked Hollywood movies, travelogues and education films to create touching, sophisticated edits and juxtapositions. The first programme includes Rose Hobart which Dali accused Cornell of stealing from his dreams, and the newly rediscovered The Wool Collage. The second programme shows collaborations with other experimental filmmakers such as Stan Brakhage and Larry Jordan. Gnir Rednow and other titles here draw on material shot by Cornell’s collaborators which he then edited and reworked according to his particular aesthetic.

  • Realizadores argentinos de Cine Experimental

    By on
    Noche y Día (Pablo Zicarello)

    El próximo 7 de agosto, a las 20, y durante los viernes de ese mes, se llevará a cabo el ciclo “Realizadores argentinos de Cine Experimental”, curado por Claudio Caldini con proyecciones nacionales, en el Auditorio del MAR. Cada jornada será presentada por Caldini e incluirá varias proyecciones organizadas bajo cuatro conceptos: Formas concretas; Señales de vida; Paisajes en trance; y Luz y tiempo.

    “Cine experimental, vanguardia, no-ficción: las definiciones y categorías resultan insuficientes para describir una práctica que involucra múltiples modos de percibir (y de pensar) mediante imágenes cinematográficas. Estas películas realizadas fuera de toda infraestructura de producción son obras individuales que reinventan la mirada en cada experiencia. Exigen del espectador una disposición similar en su receptividad”, explica Caldini sobre el ciclo.

  • La Imagen en Llamas/Images in Flames: A Survey of Uruguayan Cinema

    By on
    Color (Lydia García Millán, 1955)

    Curator/Historian Ángela López Ruiz and filmmaker Eduardo Darino In Person

    With cinematic traditions almost as old as the film medium itself, Montevideo, Uruguay, was, for much of the 20th Century a vibrant hub in the international filmmaking community. Inspired by an adventurous annual film festival—Festival de Cine Experimental y Documental—which exposed local artists to works by (among others) Stan Brakhage, John Grierson, Bert Hanstraa, Peter Kubelka, Arthur Lipsett and Norman McLaren (many of whom appeared in person), Uruguayan filmmakers had, by the 1960s, created a large body of independent and non-commercial experimental film work, much of which was archived at Cinearte Sodre, a major Latin American film archive. Tragically, fires in the early 1970s destroyed both this archive and this festival’s home venue, casting the history of this movement into obscurity. For this very rare screening, film historian/curator Ángela López Ruiz will appear in person to discuss this lost history and the efforts to document this era and preserve this history.

  • Show & Tell: Xander Marro

    By on
    Show & Tell: Xander Marro

    “Xander Marro (American b. 1975) has been living the good life in the feminist sub-underground for too many years to count on her long bony fingers. She draws pictures (usually narrative), makes movies (usually not narrative), produces plays with elaborate sets and costumes (usually narrative, but confusing), and then makes stuff like quilts and dioramas (probably narrative?). Her work is often about spiritual relationships to the material stuff of this world. Co-founder of the Dirt Palace in 2000 AD (feminist cupcake-encrusted netherworld located along the dioxin filled banks of the Woonasquatucket River, which is to say in Providence, RI, USA). Her studio (and heart) is there still.” –X.M.
