He was a crucial figure in the experimental film scene here. He passed away early in the morning on March 4, 2019. We want to honor him by screening a variety of his works made over the past 59 years. In this first part, we look more at his works originating on film in the 1960s, although some weren’t completed for decades. Their effusiveness, pop culture references, and psychedelic colorful extremes make them some of the finest documents of the 60s. Screening: Vision (excerpt)(1960-62); Stream (1963-64); Death of the Gorilla (1965); Astral Man: A Memory Film of the Sixties (excerpts)(1968-2000); The Star Curtain Tantra (1966/69) Tickets: Free but please RSVP. Available in advance from Brown Paper Tickets at https://petermays1.bpt.me or at the door. For more information: www.lafilmforum.org <http://www.lafilmforum.org> or 323-377-7238. MONDAY, MARCH 18, 2019 3/18 New York, NY: Anthology Film Archives http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=6dd5c054d6&e=f36020cad0> 7:30 PM, 32 Second Avenue CITY SYMPHONY by Dominic Angerame. A collection of five distinct films centering around the city environment in a constant state of change, focusing on images of construction and destruction of modern structures in the urban environment. CONTINUUM CONTINUUM (1987) centers on the people who perform hard manual labor, such as tarring roofs, digging up streets, etc. DECONSTRUCTION SIGHT (1995) shows how modern methods of construction have rendered men and women insignificant behind mammoth tools of destruction. IN THE COURSE OF HUMAN EVENTS (1997) documents the demolition of the Embarcadero Freeway, which was structurally damaged during the 1989 earthquake. THE LINE OF FIRE (1997) finds Angerame returning to his apartment building the day after it burned down. And PREMONITION (1995) shows the vacant Embarcadero Freeway after it has outlived its usefulness, but before its destruction.Plus, the NYC Premiere of the most recent chapter of Angerame's CITY SYMPHONY series!:REVELATIONS (2018, 24 min, digital) "This works includes footage that was filmed from the late 1990s to the present. Some of the footage includes shots from waterfront docks near the Todd Shipyards of San Francisco and scenes of the baseball stadium while it was being constructed. REVELATIONS also shows the cityscape from the Dogpatch area before renovations and many scenes from the San Francisco Embarcadero. There were many scenes in the 16mm that were over exposed and I was tempted to throw the material away. But in the post-production, my black-and-white grader, Yannis Davidas from Light Cone in Paris, was able to adjust the gain and out of the whiteness of the overexposed film materialized imagery that I had never seen before. Since new imagery was revealed to me, I decided to call the film REVELATIONS." -Dominic Angerame 3/18 Rio de Janeiro: Risco Cinema facebook.com/RISCOcinema 18h, CineMaison A VISION OF TIME - WITH DANIELLE VALLET KLEINER "Serra do Sol" (1985-2013); "Point géographique 2511925003" (1989-1991); Chemins qui ne mènent nulle part" (2007); Depuis ce temps" (2007); Un message impérial" (2015); TUESDAY, MARCH 19, 2019 3/19 New York, NY: Anthology Film Archives http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=d41506c505&e=f36020cad0> 7:00 PM, 32 Second Avenue WATER & DAMS FILM PROGRAM Dams and water systems may seem like unlikely subjects for acclaimed directors, but strangely enough everyone from Ermanno Olmi and Jean-Luc Godard to prolific American independent filmmaker Kevin Jerome Everson have made fascinating films about those very things. Both Olmi and Godard began their careers with lyrical short works documenting the construction of dams, while Everson's SOUND THAT depicts the employees of the Cleveland Water Department on the hunt for leaks in Cuyahoga County's water system. The program also includes two Canadian non-fiction films, Gordon Sparling's PICKING LOCKS and Roger Blais's THE DIKES. Gordon Sparling PICKING LOCKS (1937, 10 min, 35mm. Print courtesy of Library & Archives Canada.) Ermanno Olmi THE GLACIER DAM / LA DIGA DEL GHIACCIAIO (1954, 11 min, 16mm. Print courtesy of the Cineteca Nazionale.) Roger Blais THE DIKES (1955, 20 min, 16mm. Courtesy of the National Film Board of Canada.) Jean-Luc Godard OPERATION CONCRETE / OPÉRATION BÉTON (1958, 20 min, 35mm, b&w. In French with English subtitles.) Kevin Jerome Everson SOUND THAT (2014, 12 min, digital) Total running time: ca. 80 min. 3/19 New York, NY: Anthology Film Archives http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=1d136db0be&e=f36020cad0> 9:00 PM, 32 Second Avenue PSYCHOHYDROGRAPHY by Peter Bo Rappmund. This mesmerizing work follows the Los Angeles water supply from its Eastern Sierra Nevada source through the alien channels of the Los Angeles River all the way to its eventual Pacific deposit. Constructed entirely from single-frame photographic images, combined with sound recordings of the sun by Thomas Ashcraft, PSYCHOHYDROGRAPHY is a strikingly conceived and fully accomplished work. It is reminiscent of the work of James Benning and Thom Andersen in its formal qualities as well as its concern with the social and political dimensions of landscape. With: Emily Richardson PETROLIA (2005, 21 min, digital) PETROLIA looks at the architecture of the oil industry along the Scottish coastline where oil and gas supplies are predicted to run dry in the next forty years. Shooting on 16mm, and using time lapse and long exposure techniques, the film presents a record of industrial phenomena: the toxic beauty of the refinery at Grangemouth, huge drilling platforms gliding across the water as they come in for maintenance and repair at Nigg, and the last dance of the shipbuilding cranes in Glasgow harbor. FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 2019 3/22 Brooklyn, NY United States: UnionDocs http://www.uniondocs.org <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=660f60d4e8&e=f36020cad0> 10:00 AM, 322 Union Ave WORKSHOP &MDASH; REALITY IN THE MAKING: DOCUMENTARY AND PERFORMANCE ** This workshop is limited to 15 participants ** At root, the nature of documentary exploration relies on a keen sense of observation. Inspired by the great documentary performances in films by Shirley Clarke, Abbas Kiarostami, Marlon Riggs, Jean Rouch, Orson Welles and many others, this workshop will integrate this heightened awareness into a hybrid form of response and interpretation using performance as our foundation. If a person is conscious of being in front of a camera, then every movement, gesture or word spoken is a form of willing collaboration in performing the self. Our intention, as a group, will be to break the boundaries between fiction and non-fiction. This three-day intensive is designed for a small group of professionals and will expose participants to a broad range of analysis and creative approaches to contemporary practice of documentary performance. Participants will also have the opportunity to experience the first act of Say Something Bunny!. There will be a corresponding public event with live performances on Thursday, March 21. Workshop attendees will receive free entry. Led by Lynne Sachs with guest instructors Alison S.M. Kobayashi, Walis Johnson and Lizzie Olesker. Please only register if you are able to attend all 3-sessions and participate in a short personal exercise before the course. Participants will write one paragraph and shoot a three minute video with a camera or cell phone prior to the beginning of the workshop. No video editing is required. Lynne will send out specific information about how to prepare this material. SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 2019 3/23 Berkeley, CA United States: Pacific Film Archive http://www.bampfa.berkeley.edu/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=3e284ce013&e=f36020cad0> 3:00 PM, 2155 Center St SHORT ANIMATION BY DENNIS TUPICOFF Dennis Tupicoff is one of the most accomplished Australian independent animators working today. His unique style of hand-drawn animation mixed with live-action elements creates a feeling of grace in tackling such subjects as humanity and mortality. While he is known mostly for his works in animated documentary, Tupicoff also creates dramas, comedies, documentary hybrids, and film essays; regardless of his cinematic and editorial approach, his films are always introspective, experiential, and honest. We are pleased to present a selection of works by Tupicoff ranging from early works including Dance of Death and His Mother’s Voice to the recent a photo of me and Still Alive. 3/23 New York, NY: Anthology Film Archives http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=29d0249712&e=f36020cad0> 5:15 PM, 32 Second Avenue TRANS FILM: THE FILMS OF SUZIE SILVER, PROGRAM 1: ALTERNATE IMAGINARIES SUZIE SILVER IN PERSON! Over a career spanning the last thirty years, artist and filmmaker Suzie Silver has been persistently re-imagining human desires through the lenses of science fiction, drag, camp, and myth. We are thrilled to present two programs of her highly collaborative work, including early projects that helped define the canon of queer and trans video and performance, and new works that continue to expand upon it today. OBLIGATE SYMBIONTS OF COLUBUS GRAND takes us into an imagined cosmology 45.3 light years away where beings enact ritualized dance, while STINKHORN is the latest edition of Silver's work exploring fairy tales and mythic stories. ERIC MOE'S IDYLL reveals the mating rituals of forest nymphs, while THE HAPPIEST DAY creates a realm of innocence and pleasure in which historic performances are reenacted. A SPY: HESTER REEVE DOES THE DOORS is perhaps Silver's best-known work, wherein drag king Reeve performs to The Doors' "The Spy," clad as Jesus Christ with small, painted portraits on each breast. NEBULA creates an immersive kaleidoscopic sensory viewing experience, and FREEBIRD features Silver performing in drag the infamous Southern rock anthem that inspired an entire generation of 1970s male youth.

Lotte Reiniger fashioned a sublime silhouette-animation style in the ‘30s, whilst Charlotte Salomon opened up a new expressive space between painting and the diary. As to the single-channel work, we’re delighted to share (another Berliner) Sylvia Schedelbauer’s multiple award-winning Wishing Well, Janie Geiser’s Magnetic Sleep, Karen Yasinsky’s Boy, Salise Hughes’ Antarctica, Nina Paley’s You Gotta Believe, Suzzie Roche/Lewis Klahr’s Black River Falls, and the West Coast inaugural of Elise Reynard/Ben Folstein’s Zog: The First Feminist.*$9 SUNDAY, MARCH 24, 2019 3/24 Los Angeles, California: Filmforum http://www.lafilmforum.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=82b12fd3ee&e=f36020cad0> 7:30 pm, Spielberg Theatre at the Egyptian, 6712 Hollywood Blvd. INTERIOR GARDENS: THE FILMS OF SARA KATHRYN ARLEDGE In conjunction with the exhibition entitled Sara Kathryn Arledge: Serene for the Moment, at the Armory Center for the Arts. Sara Kathryn Arledge is one of the undeservedly neglected figures in the American experimental cinema. Although her two major works, INTROSPECTION and WHAT IS A MAN?, were completed in 1946 and 1958, respectively, neither was screened with any frequency until the late 1970s. Spending much of her life in Pasadena, Filmforum hosted her in 1980, and Filmforum founder Terry Cannon and his wife Mary are responsible for the survival of most of Arledge’s surviving artworks. Now, in conjunction with an electrifying exhibition at the Armory Center for the Arts, Filmforum is delighted to present all of Arledge’s films again. We’re delighted that the exhibition curator Irene Tsatsos and Filmforum founder Terry Cannon will be introducing the show. Tickets: $10 general; $6 for students/seniors; free for Filmforum members. Available in advance from Brown Paper Tickets at https://arledge.bpt.me or at the door.

SELECT FILMMAKERS IN PERSON! Before Internet dating and hookup apps, The Handkerchief code was largely used by gay men in the 1970s to distinguish sexual preferences and fetishes in gay clubs and on the streets of places like San Francisco and New York. In HANKY CODE, San Francisco's queer experimental film collective Periwinkle Cinema brings together queer and trans filmmakers across a spectrum of genres, styles, genders, and locations to dissect the code in this epic anthology feature comprised of 25 short films. Each filmmaker or filmmaking team tells a story of a different color/fetish of the code. Films range from narrative to experimental to erotic and animated, with many films redefining the traditional code with colors, patterns, and fetishes according to the creative interpretation of the artist. Audience members are invited to flag their hankies at the screening.
