The exhibition will premiere a new video work, *Hemlock *(2021), as well as a new installation of Thornton’s influential cycle *Peggy and Fred in Hell* (1983–2015). In a career spanning nearly five decades, Leslie Thornton has produced an influential body of work in film and video. Her early encounters with experimental, structuralist, and cinéma vérité traditions as a student in the 1970s fueled her iconoclastic take on the moving image and gave shape to her practice of weaving together her own footage and voice with archival film and audio. In part through her forceful and dynamic use of sound, Thornton exposes the limits of language and vision in her works, while acknowledging the ways that language and vision nevertheless remain central to scientific discourse and narrative in general. Engaging these themes within a focused survey, Thornton’s List Center exhibition will mark the artist’s first US solo museum exhibition and most comprehensive presentation to date. The relationship between technology, power, and violence is an enduring concern for Thornton. In early works, such as *X-TRACTS* (1975), *All Right You Guys* (1976) and *Jennifer, Where Are You?* (1981), Thornton contends with the basic conditions of representation in film and how the camera itself wields power. In *Let Me Count the Ways* (2004–ongoing) and *Cut >From Liquid to Snake* (2018), Thornton takes up the United States’ history of nuclear warfare—a subject fraught with personal resonance for her, as both her father and grandfather were involved in the Manhattan Project, the top-secret effort that produced the atomic bombs that the U.S. dropped on Japan in the final days of World War II. A touchstone of experimental film, *Peggy and Fred in Hell *is a multi-chapter work that surfaces the Cold War-era anxieties that shaped Thornton’s formative years and plumbs the psychological impact of technology in postwar America. Thornton’s recent film *Ground* (2020) embeds the voice of a physicist discussing particle decay within elegant yet foreboding technological landscapes. The exhibition’s title, *Begin Again, Again*—borrowed from a line in *Peggy and Fred in Hell*—alludes to human-made cycles of destruction and renewal as well the hallmarks of Thornton’s practice: an accumulation and repetition of images and language and a radically open-ended approach to observing, processing, and understanding. Thornton’s exhibition is organized by Natalie Bell, Curator, MIT List Visual Arts Center. In conjunction with the exhibition, the List Center is co-publishing the artist’s first monograph with Sternberg Press. *Exhibition Brochure with list of works exhibited*: https://listart.mit.edu/sites/default/files/MIT_List-Thornton_Brochure_2021.pdf <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=e7cd07c57b&e=857b71a9cb> *___________________________________________________________________* *November 20 - February 26* Venue type: *Live, physical event* National Gallery of Art, Vilnius <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=2dec22a957&e=857b71a9cb> times vary, National Gallery of Art, Konstitucijos pr.22, Vilnius, Lithuania *Jonas Mekas and the New York Avant-Garde* The exhibition presents Jonas Mekas' (1922-2019) work in the expanded sense. It covers his filmic practice as well as his intellectual, organizational, and often bluntly administrative approach to the labour of building and running multiple institutions and fostering new habits of looking at film as an art form. The exhibition focuses on the first three decades of Mekas' activities, starting with his coming to New York as a displaced person in 1949, through to him becoming a central figure in advocating, producing, distributing, promoting, and preserving the filmic avant-garde. The exhibition features Mekas' filmic corpus, including his celebrated diary films that epitomize his lifelong practice of recording glimpses of everyday life: while they show personal experiences, marked by exile, longing, family, and friendships, they are also steeped in the social and political events of the day. Though known primarily as a poet and a filmmaker in Lithuania, Mekas wore many more hats that granted him the title of the 'godfather' of American avant-garde cinema. Before premiering his first film, Mekas together with his brother Adolfas Mekas began publishing *Film Culture* magazine in 1955 and soon joined the *Village Voice* as a film critic. These became the main outlets through which Mekas channeled his ideas about film as an art form of personal expression and called for a new kind of cinema free from censorship and existing production and distribution systems. An alternative arts movement sprang up across New York in the postwar years, as artist-run spaces, groups, and cooperatives took the production and distribution of art into their own hands in response to mainstream institutional structures and official cultural politics. Mekas had been a crucial part of it. By the mid-1960s, Mekas' loft at 414 Park Avenue South became a headquarters for the fermenting avant-garde film culture; a sleepless hub frequented by filmmakers and artists alike. This decade marked Mekas' embrace of the avant-garde spirit, as he took part in the formation of the New American Cinema Group, and the establishment of the Film-Makers' Cooperative, the Filmmakers' Cinematheque, and Anthology Film Archives. These time-consuming activities occasionally seeped into his filmic diaries and even, as Mekas suggested, to some degree determined his films' fragmentary structure. They are presented in the exhibition through a selection of critical writings, photographs, magazines, institutional ephemera, and other archival material arranged in porous conceptual clusters on the table traversing the exhibition space. Images, sounds, and materials Mekas collected and organized throughout his lifetime - in his films and in his personal archive - serve today as an entry point into the history of avant-garde film culture in New York. The exhibition pays tribute to this era of the burgeoning American avant-garde film scene and contextualizes Mekas' output by presenting a selection of works by filmmakers who shared his aesthetic sensibility, whom he championed, and with whom he worked, including Gideon Bachmann, Stan Brakhage, Shirley Clarke, Maya Deren, Storm de Hirsch, Ken Jacobs, Marie Menken, Carolee Schneemann, Paul Sharits, Jack Smith, and Andy Warhol. A selection of films is screened behind the curved wall in the specially designed projection rooms. These rooms are loosely inspired by the Invisible Cinema, an experimental movie theater designed by the Austrian artist and filmmaker Peter Kubelka and originally installed at Anthology Film Archives in 1970. *Curators:* Inesa Brašiškė and Lukas Brašiškis an article: https://arterritory.com/en/visual_arts/events/25859-jonas_mekas_and_the_new_york_avant-garde/ <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=9c22e2d291&e=857b71a9cb> *___________________________________________________________________* *December 1 - 18* Venue type: *Both physical and online* The Flaherty NYC <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=0b44b66ff7&e=857b71a9cb> various times, various venues, New York, NY Event URL: https://theflaherty.org/2021-flaherty-nyc-1 <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=62c4a7ff95&e=857b71a9cb> *2021 Fall Flaherty NYC: Transformation and Renewal* The Flaherty is thrilled to announce its upcoming 2021 Fall Flaherty NYC, Transformation and Renewal programmed by Kelsey White and L u m i a.

This series of films highlights works by artists and visionaries who reimagine life and transform its representation, often in response to the many crises that mark their epochs. *TRANSFORMATION AND RENEWAL * *“BE YE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD: BUT BE YE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND.”* -ROMANS 12 >From the warm flicker of the hand-cranked projector to the cool glow of a cracked iPhone screen, cinema remains in flux, and yet it continues to offer the viewer chances to encounter uniquely personal visions. These visions alter our perceptions of reality and strengthen our resistance to conformity and complacency. Is this cinema as sorcery? Voluntary derangement of the senses can lead to unexpected possibilities, and the recovery of presence reveals the joy of living shrouded in the loss that marks our time.

B/W. Sound. Digital. English subtitles by Frank O’Hara. Joan Mitchell’s artists circle in the 1950s and 1960s, known as the New York School, included poet Frank O’Hara and SFMOMA collection artist Alfred Leslie, a painter and filmmaker known for *Pull My Daisy*, a 1959 film co-directed with Robert Frank. While the artists and writers held firm to their own practices, wonderful things happened when they came together. Released in 1964 and screened at SFMOMA that year, *The Last Clean Shirt* is an avant-garde classic that probes the limits of cinematic form and predates the rise of structuralist film. This collaborative project between Leslie and O’Hara features a young Black man and white woman driving around downtown Manhattan with an alarm clock taped to the dashboard. While the woman speaks in a mix of Finnish and gibberish, their meanderings and musings are told through O’Hara’s subtitles in a beautiful stream of consciousness that runs throughout the film. In a letter to O’Hara, Leslie describes a goal of the film: “We will shoot for two SEPARATE LEVELS on the film. One is the VISUAL, the other the HEARD & the spectator will be in TWO places or more SIMULTANEOUSLY. NOT AS MEMORY BUT AT THE SAME MOMENT. PARALLELISM! MULTIPLE POINTS OF VIEW!” Screens courtesy of LUX. *___________________________________________________________________* *December 17 - 19* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Anthology Film Archives <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=b47822e315&e=857b71a9cb> times vary, see below, 32 Second Avenue, New York *EC: JAMES BROUGHTON* PROGRAM 1: December 17, 5:30pm *MOTHER’S DAY* (1948, 22 min, 16mm) *FOUR IN THE AFTERNOON* (1951, 15 min, 16mm) *LOONY TOM, THE HAPPY LOVER* (1951, 10 min, 16mm) “For Broughton, making films did not make him less of a poet; it made him more of a poet. Like Jean Cocteau, Broughton insisted that poetry was not limited to ‘verse,’ and that it was the most precise word to describe his activities. […] His ‘filmic passion’ led him not to commercial cinema…but to a ‘life of vision’ in which he might experience ‘a poetry that would reveal on a large screen what my feelings looked like.’” –Jack Foley, FULL, FRONTAL MYSTERY: THE FILMS OF JAMES BROUGHTON Total running time: ca. 50 min.

Like the poems, the films record the basic rites of passage, the search for love, the primal relationships, with ironic insight: there are parents who are children, a rube who’s really the artist, a loony wise man.” –P. Adams Sitney Total running time: ca. 75 min. PROGRAM 3: December 19, 2:30pm *THE GOLDEN POSITIONS* (1970, 32 min, 16mm) “A lovely, poetic, humorous, and crystal investigation of mankind standing, sitting, and lying down.” –John Wasserman, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE *DREAMWOOD* (1972, 45 min, 16mm) “A modern day spiritual odyssey in which a man is mysteriously compelled to leave his home and embark on a voyage to a strange, magical island. On the island he faces the most improbable and intense experiences of his life, ranging from total humiliation to a deep sense of oneness with the force of life. Heroic in concept, subtle in execution, DREAMWOOD is a beautiful film by a true master of the medium.” –David Bienstock *HIGH KUKUS* (1974, 3 min, 16mm) “A High Kuku is, of course, a cuckoo haiku. In inventing this form Broughton has concocted zany verses which are ‘high’ in the sense that they are often metaphysical and are keenly aware of the metacomedy of things.” –Alan Watts Total running time: ca. 85 min. *SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2021* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Shapeshifters Cinema <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=d434275151&e=857b71a9cb> 1-6pm PT, Shapeshifters Cinema, 567 5th Street Oakland, CA *Shapeshifters Open House & Pop-up Market* Join us for our first public event since March of 2020!
