Screening Sunday, 11/21/21 at 4 PM PST, Los Angeles Filmforum presents the third of three programs of "Underground movies," curated by Jenny Perlin and Leo Goldsmith. “Underground Movies” charts a unique aesthetic terrain through which to explore larger questions of humanity's material and psychological relation to the planet’s substructure—as a space to be reshaped and exploited, but also as one in which to imagine ourselves anew.
Ben Russell (1976) is an American artist, filmmaker and curator whose work lies at the intersection of ethnography and psychedelia. His films and installations are in direct conversation with the history of the documentary image, providing a time-based inquiry into trance phenomena. Russell was an exhibiting artist at documenta 14 (2017) and his work has been presented at the Centre Georges Pompidou, the Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Modern, the Museum of Modern Art Chicago, the Venice Film Festival and the Berlinale, among others.
