  • Paper Airplanes: The Collections of Harry Smith. Catalogue Raisonné, Volume I

    Filmmaker, painter, anthropologist, musicologist and occultist--Harry Smith (1923-1991) was an incomparable polymath and seminal figure in the realms of beat culture and avant-garde art. Smith's kaleidoscopic experimental films have influenced generations of artists and cinephiles, while his landmark three-volume compilation, the Anthology of American Folk Music (1952), laid the foundation for the folk music revival of the 1950s and 1960s.

  • Ingo Petzke: Northern Lights

    Particularly in the ’70s and early ’80s, Ingo Petzke was a force to reckon with. This was mostly due to his effervescent, encompassing activities in the arena of experimental film: writing and teaching, starting art house cinemas and even festivals, sitting on juries and boards, running CINE PRO – Germany’s only distribution company specialised in experimental film – and even funding cash prices for budding film makers. Last but not least he was a filmmaker in his own right.

  • Zen for Film

    How do works of art endure over time in the face of aging materials and changing interpretations of their meaning? How do decay, technological obsolescence, and the blending of old and new media affect what an artwork is and can become? And how can changeable artworks encourage us to rethink our assumptions of art as fixed and static? Revisions is a unique exploration of all of these questions.

  • Binghamton Babylon: Voices from the Cinema Department, 1967-1977

    In Binghamton Babylon, Scott M. MacDonald documents one of the crucial moments in the history of cinema studies: the emergence of a cinema department at what was then the State University of New York at Binghamton (now Binghamton University) between 1967 and 1977. The department brought together a group of faculty and students who not only produced a remarkable body of films and videos but went on to invigorate the American media scene for the next half-century.

  • Off-Screen Cinema: Isidore Isou and the Lettrist Avant-Garde

    One of the most important avant-garde movements of postwar Paris was Lettrism, which crucially built an interest in the relationship between writing and image into projects in poetry, painting, and especially cinema. Highly influential, the Lettrists served as a bridge of sorts between the earlier works of the Dadaists and Surrealists and the later Conceptual artists.

  • 8 Affinities: Jaap Pieters & John Porter

    Jaap Pieters, based in Amsterdam, and John Porter, from Toronto, are two of the most prolific Super 8mm filmmakers alive. Pieters has been making Super 8mm films since the early 1980s and Porter's work goes as far back as 1968. Both are considered to be important, although perhaps eccentric, members of their local film scene. 8 Affinities brings them together in a long candid conversation about their filmmaking, shared interests and divergent practices.
