AXW Screening: Replay From GreenpointCurated By Lili White
Programme:- New World (Judy Rifka, 1.22)New World is a photomontage of numerous favorite clips. The showstopper, the brand intro to 1930’s Worldwide Production. Continuing the global theme with Spheres from Space Series sequences from collaborations with Daniel Dibble. I juxtaposed outtakes from the various sequences, by lining them up and screen shooting, superimposed onto a Photoshopped digital 3D effect image. If postmodern is said to be a fantasy, this would be it.

Retrospective of works by Dmitri Frolov (18+). Frolov is one of the leaders of russian film vanguard in postperestroika age. He makes aesthetic experiments connecting with a return to dumb cinema on new level of movie language.
Nick Collins has been making films since the late 1970s. They centre on small scale instances of human geography and habitation, spanning investigations of archeological sites to contemporary environs. Graphic patterns of light and shadow are the focus of his observational camera, with his subjects including Greek temples, domestic gardens, and town squares. Collins has often collected his films together in short series of 'little films' reflecting their lyricism.
DIM Cinema presents a free screening pairing two canonical works of Canadian experimental film: Michael Snow’s single-take across a New York loft, perhaps “the most consequential zoom shot in the history of cinema” (Jonathan Rosenbaum, Monthly Film Bulletin), and Alberta-born, B.C.-based filmmaker Ellie Epp’s 12-shot study of a soon-to-be-demolished public bath in London, which “maps another way out of structural film toward a cinema of delicate implication” (Bart Testa, Canadian Encyclopedia).
After screening her amazing film Magic Mirror in 2013, we are delighted to invite British artist Sarah Pucill to present her latest film for The Dream That Kicks.
Amidst a visual extravaganza of costumes and hand-made sets, Sarah Pucill's new film Confessions to the Mirror takes its title, from the French Surrealist artist, Claude Cahun’s incomplete memoir. Following Cahun’s text, the film includes Cahun’s early and later life and work including her political propaganda activity and imprisonment in Jersey with her partner Suzanne Malherbe during the Nazi occupation of the island.
