Screening in partnership with the Bismuth Lemaître Guymer Endowment Fund, presented by Federico Rossin

Maurice Lemaître (1926-2026), artist, poet, filmmaker, and a leading figure of Lettrism, would have turned 100 this year. Light Cone joins in the celebrations of a century of radical creativity by presenting a program of films from its collection.

Guest program by Martin Grennberger, independent curator

When attempting to remap some early milieus of experimental film culture in Sweden, one cannot help but notice their scattered nature. The 1950s saw the beginning of co-op initiatives with the establishment of Svensk Experiment Film Studio in 1950 (today, Filmform); artists and painters, transfixed by its polysemic kinetic and temporal nature, turned to filmmaking; and a steady group of cinephiles was incipient in the burgeoning film clubs.
