Tone Glow Presents "So Lovely to Be: The Everyday Poetics of Sandra Davis"

By Marcos Ortega on Jue, 01/05/2025 - 18:40

Tone Glow is excited to announce “So Lovely to Be,” a seven-film retrospective of the works of Sandra Davis. Based in San Francisco, the avant-garde filmmaker has spent the past 50 years constructing works of arresting beauty and elegant poeticism. Her approach to editing was inspired by Johann Sebastian Bach, taking influence from the harpsichord’s short decay and the fugal form to ensure that her every successive image shapes one’s understanding of all previous ones.

Confesionario: El cine iluminado de Sandra Davis

By Marcos Ortega on Mar, 13/02/2024 - 02:53

En esta sesión del programa mensual comisariado por el artista e historiador Pablo Marín descubriremos la obra de la norteamericana Sandra Davis, figura insólita del cine de vanguardia. De ella dijo Larry Jordan: “Su obra explota en el interior de la mente, abriendo agujeros, impresiones, vacíos profundos y visiones interiores desconocidas. Su montaje es tan implacable en la búsqueda de formas inciertas que, de algún modo, consigue hacer visible la mente interior”.

Se proyectarán tres de sus películas en formato de 16mm:

Sense and Sensuality: Bay Area Feminist Filmmaking of the 1980s

By Marcos Ortega on Vie, 15/07/2016 - 14:59

Much critical attention to women’s avant-garde filmmaking of the 1970s and 1980s focused on East coast and European feminist filmmakers, the critique of visual pleasure and the notion of the male gaze in cinema. In San Francisco, a new generation of feminist avant-garde filmmakers were emerging with a very different approach to questions of gender and pleasure in cinema.

Eye on a Director: Canyon Cinema

By Marcos Ortega on Mié, 06/07/2016 - 15:22

For the second installment of Eye on a Director, MAD highlights the collection of the legendary film distributor and archive Canyon Cinema. In the late 1950s, Canyon Cinema brought together independent film artists whose work reflected a remarkable diversity in style and content. Variously called avant-garde, underground and experimental, these artists shared a vision of filmmaking as a form of personal expression, free from the demands and constraints of commercial conventions.

Canyon Cinema Salon: Sandra Davis

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 17/02/2014 - 05:57

Canyon Cinema Foundation is proud to announce its new public programming adventure – the Canyon Cinema Salon. An opportunity for dialogue and exploration, these monthly events are designed as a platform for the community to directly engage and learn from moving image artists in an intimate setting. Artists will have an open forum to present work from their repertoire, discuss creative process, and share their inspirations. Free, open to the public and volunteer run, the Salon series is hosted by New Nothing Cinema (16 Sherman Street, downtown San Francisco).

Join us for the inaugural Canyon Cinema Salon on Monday, February 24th featuring San Francisco-based experimental filmmaker and curator Sandra Davis. She will present a contrasting duo that demonstrate differing avenues of motivation and inspiration in her practice – Ignorance Before Malice (2006, excerpt), a blistering essay film that sheds light on the struggle to heal within the American medical system and coming to terms with one’s own physical limitations and mortality; along with a very personal, short, ode-like work For A Young Cineaste / A Une Jeune Cineaste (2014) which blissfully travels into another, and private, direction.
