Collective Filmmaking: a Chorus of Resistance

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 03/02/2025 - 09:35

In the two decades of the 1960s and 1970s, a wave of filmmakers united into film clubs, and film collectives, a shift from an individual, hierarchical model of production to one based on fluidity and embracing the DIY and ‘amateur’ spirit of such collaborations. Nevertheless, the screening and post-screening talk aim to emphasise the labour of female filmmakers within such collectives, who are often written out of the narratives of their radical efforts.

Moments from a Sensual Cinema: A Tribute to Malcolm Le Grice

By Marcos Ortega on Vie, 31/01/2025 - 07:45

Last year, BIMI ran a series of screenings inspired by the journal Afterimage, showing some of the avant-garde work it had celebrated. One English filmmaker who could well have been included sadly left us in December. Malcolm Le Grice was a towering figure in independent and avant-garde film, not only in Britain but known around the world as a driving force in the arts lab movement, and a mainstay of the London Filmmakers Co-Op during its most influential period.

Los Angeles Filmforum presents Unstable Ground: Science, Extraction, and Belief in Monisme (Experimentations: Imag(in)ing Knowledge in Film, Program 16)

By Alex G on Vie, 31/01/2025 - 02:12

Many things collide in Riar Rizaldi’s Monisme: magic, science, indigenous knowledge systems, violence, and a tenuous boundary between the past and the future, fact and fiction. These all collide around Mount Merapi, one of the most active stratovolcano in the world, located in Java, Indonesia. Monisme’s multiple collisions ultimately illuminate the various modalities of relation between humans and nature.

The screening will be followed by a panel with Riar Rizaldi, Fern Silva, and Jasmine Nadua Trice and by a free dinner.

Curated by Jheanelle Brown.

Xcèntric: Las confesiones de Curt McDowell

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 27/01/2025 - 04:57

Obsceno, juguetón, indecente, friki, impúdico, sexi, brillante, camp, punki, pueril, grosero, glamuroso... no hay suficientes adjetivos evocadores para abarcar con precisión los innumerables placeres de la decididamente queer y radicalmente multisexual obra cinematográfica de Curt McDowell en toda su exuberante fecundidad.

Screening LAV #025: Film Bricolage

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 27/01/2025 - 04:27

"Para el cineasta-bricolador, los medios son también a menudo los fines. El especialista canadiense en cine Éric Thouvenel sostiene que la historia y las prácticas del cine experimental adoptan un «modo de pensamiento bricolaje» que «va en contra de las prácticas industriales, que la mayoría de las veces emplean máquinas cuyas funciones han sido estandarizadas y cuyos usos han sido muy prescritos».

Los Angeles Filmforum presents This Bit of That India (Experimentations: Imag(in)ing Knowledge in Film Program 15 )

By Alex G on Sáb, 25/01/2025 - 13:50

The history of experimental film in India is tied to the history of India’s quest for modernity and is particularly visible in the experimental films on science and technology produced by the Films Division of India during the cultural revolution of the late 60’s and early 70’s. Jawaharlal Nehru, India’s first Prime Minister was committed to building modern temples i.e., industry powered by science & technology, which he believed would propel Indians towards a Soviet style trajectory of building a socialist utopia.

An Evening with Heather McAdams

By Marcos Ortega on Mié, 22/01/2025 - 05:07

As part of MoMA's preservation festival To Save and Project, and its artist cinema series Modern Mondays, Heather McAdams joins us to present new 16mm restorations of her irreverent collage films from the 1980s, recently preserved by the Chicago Film Society

Known for her work as a cartoonist and filmmaker, McAdams has long been a fixture of Chicago’s alternative film and music scenes and was once hailed by B. Ruby Rich in the Chicago Reader as combining “the collage finesse of a Bruce Conner with the crude campiness of the Kuchar brothers.”
