Throughout his life, Mekas always emphasized and cherished his Lithuanian roots. After fleeing the foreign occupation of his native land, he arrived in New York City, in his own words “at exactly the right moment”, joining thousands of others escaping the devastation wrought by destructive ideologies and tyrannical regimes in Europe. One might say that Mekas left one village, his native Semeniškiai in northern Lithuania, and immersed himself in the life of another – the Village thriving in and around lower Manhattan, and in its landmark publication, the Village Voice, helping to shape American and global culture so profoundly in the latter half of the 20th century. This centennial celebration, Jonas Mekas 100!, seeks to expand global recognition of his work and encourage a deeper exploration of Mekas’ prolific contributions to cinema, film criticism, cultural organization, and, in particular, his body of poems and prose, now published in Lithuanian, French, German, English, Japanese, Hebrew, and many other languages. The centennial program features over 50 events in an expanding list of countries, including: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The vast scope of Mekas’ contribution to global cultural is examined through film screenings and retrospectives, exhibitions, readings, workshops, new publications and translations of Mekas’ writings, and concerts celebrating the spirit of his work, among other events. The centennial program is a joint international collaboration between leading art and cinema organisations, curators, publishers, the global network of Lithuanian cultural attachés, the Estate of Jonas Mekas, and the Lithuanian Culture Institute. *___________________________________________________________________* *March 2022 - Fall 2022* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Denver Museum of Nature & Science <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=f2c4f7e2ac&e=857b71a9cb> open during Museum hours, The Summit Stage and Expedition Health, Denver Museum of Nature & Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd, Denver, CO *REFRESH: *CYANOBACTERIA OFFER PERSPECTIVE ON OURSELVES This art-science collaboration looks at the microscopic ways cyanobacteria move, on an individual level and in colonies. If we study these organisms and their varied forms, we might discover ways to improve our future. On display at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science in the Summit Stage and Expedition Health, March 2022 - Fall 2022 The cells in your body take in oxygen and sweep out waste products like carbon dioxide (CO2). Microscopic cyanobacteria use photosynthesis to work in reverse, breathing in CO2 and pumping out oxygen. Three billion years ago, cyanobacteria created Earth’s oxygenfilled atmosphere, supporting the evolution of creatures like us. Today, they provide one-quarter of the planet’s oxygen, and cyanobacteria like spirulina provide us with food. Researchers believe that cyanobacteria —which need only sunlight, CO2, and water to thrive— could offer solutions to our changing climate. They might help reduce CO2 on a grand scale, contribute to biofuel production, and support long-term space travel. This diverse group of organisms offers a symbolic warning as well: when colonies of cyanobacteria become too dense or stressed, they can run out of nutrients or be destroyed by their own air pollution. Made with the collaborative efforts of filmmaker Erin Espelie and the Jeffrey Cameron Laboratory at the University of Colorado Boulder, which created a customized microscope system specifically tailored for long-term growth and quantitative imaging of cyanobacterial cells; with special thanks to microbiologist and cinematographer Evan Johnson and artists Nima Bahrehmand, Travis Austin, Will Alstetter, as well as NEST Studio for the Arts. *___________________________________________________________________* *April 8 - September 11* Venue type: *Live, physical event* The New England Triennial <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=5746b3b5f5&e=857b71a9cb> see below for hours, deCordova Sculpture Park & Museum, Lincoln, MA + Fruitlands Museum, Harvard, MA *The New England Triennial* The New England Triennial 2022 recognizes the vitality of contemporary art across the Northeast amid the recent years of upheaval and transformation. Spanning two museum venues—deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum and Fruitlands Museum—this year’s iteration features artwork by twenty-five artists from Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Prioritizing change over stability, many of the artists’ practices involve processes of unmaking and remaking—patching things together, dissecting, and rebuilding forms using discarded parts. Their collective artistry reveals interconnected tendencies: a focus on kinship and ancestral lineages; a search for one’s place in the world; the visualization of data; themes of ruin and decay, and processes of alchemical transmutation. Artists in this exhibition grapple with difficult and unjust moments of history and contemporary life. Some employ generations-old creative traditions in poetic, passionate, and informed ways. Altogether, their work unearths hidden energies and stories surfacing at a time defined by change and resilience. Since 1989, the New England Triennial (formerly known as the deCordova New England Biennial) has been a mainstay of deCordova’s programming and mission, exemplifying the museum’s commitment to contemporary art of the Northeast region. For the first time, this upcoming cycle will span two museum venues, deCordova and Fruitlands, expanding the platform for this highly-anticipated survey of art making in New England. We hope you will visit both locations to appreciate the exhibition’s full scope. deCordova Artists Elizabeth Atterbury, Ann Craven, Jeremy Frey, Merik Goma, Kate Greene, Meena Hasan, Baxter Koziol, Jodie Mack, Anina Major, Marla McLeod, Elle Pérez, Estefania Puerta, Allison Maria Rodriguez, Em Rooney, Michelle Segre, Nafis M.

Featuring lost-and-found home movies from the Prelinger Archives, alongside celebrated artworks by the likes of David Hockney, Patti Smith, Claes Oldenburg, Annie Pootoogook, Arthur Jafa and Mary Pratt, as well as snapshots, photo albums, letters, television, grocery lists, and social media, *I AM HERE* brings together a broad range of personal records from different time periods and locales to explore the shared human impulse to document life as it happens. Co-curated by Jim Shedden, the AGO’s Manager of Publishing, and Alexa Greist, AGO Associate Curator and R. Fraser Elliott Chair, Prints & Drawings, in collaboration with archivist, scholar and writer Rick Prelinger, the exhibition is a celebration of daily life and human creativity, replete with music and creative prompts. Among the artworks on display will be a digital collage of the more than 3000 submissions received from around the world as part of the AGO’s 2021 Portraits of Resilience exhibition. The exhibition will be accompanied by a catalogue co-published by the AGO and DelMonico Books/D.A.P *___________________________________________________________________* *August 5 - 7* Venue type: Anthology Film Archives <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=f06310bda7&e=857b71a9cb> times vary, see below, 32 Second Avenue, New York *EC: L’ÂGE D’OR* August 5 @ 9pm ET August 6 @ 8:15pm ET August 7 @ 5:30pm ET *L’ÂGE D’OR* by Luis Buñuel & Salvador Dalí In French with English subtitles, 1930, 73 min, 35mm, b&w “The story is a sequence of moral and surrealist aesthetics. The sexual instinct and the sense of death form the substance of the film. It is a romantic film performed in full surrealistic frenzy.” – Luis Buñuel *___________________________________________________________________* *August 5 - 7* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Anthology Film Archives <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=21ee9ba808&e=857b71a9cb> times vary, see below, 32 Second Avenue, New York *ANDY WARHOL’S DURATIONAL CINEMA* This summer we present rare screenings of three of Andy Warhol’s most often-discussed but rarely-screened films, all of which represent bold experiments in durational cinema: *SLEEP* (1963), *EMPIRE* (1964), and *THE CHELSEA GIRLS* (1966). *SLEEP* and *EMPIRE* are notoriously minimal works – the former, lasting five-plus hours, records the poet and artist John Giorno sleeping; the latter consists of an eight-hour stationary shot of the Empire State Building – in which the slightest shifts in light, atmosphere, and gesture carry the weight of dramatic plot developments. *THE CHELSEA GIRLS*, on the other hand, is a comparatively maximalist work: a three-and-a-half hour double-screen epic in which numerous Factory regulars and other Warhol collaborators enact various scenarios, all of which ostensibly take place within different rooms of the Chelsea Hotel. All three are radical and unique filmic experiences. Special thanks to Katie Trainor (Museum of Modern Art). This series has been made possible by The Film Exhibition Fund, a new grants-giving 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the screening of celluloid film prints.

If, as usually happens in motion pictures, the moral principals approved by conventional society are carefully observed by members of the poorest classes…then these principals have some universal validity. However, Buñuel is concerned with exposing the opposite.” –Emilio Garcia Riera, FILM CULTURE “[*LOS OLVIDADOS*] lashes the mind like a red-hot iron and leaves one’s conscience no opportunity to rest.” –André Bazin *WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 10, 2022* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Anthology Film Archives <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=ebddaa0812&e=857b71a9cb> 7:30pm ET, 32 Second Avenue, New York *IMAGELESS FILMS: SCRATCH FILMS* This screening gathers a selection of films that foreground the materiality of 16mm or 35mm film by calling attention to the scratches, dust, or other detritus that can accrue to the film strip, either by direct intervention of the artist or by organic accumulation over time. The program features very rare presentations of two double-screen 16mm works by the great UK experimental filmmaker Malcolm Le Grice. Nam June Paik *ZEN FOR FILM (Fluxfilm No. 1)* (1962-64, 8 min, 16mm, silent. Preserved by Anthology Film Archives.) “Clear film, accumulating in time dust and scratches.” –George Maciunas “As an analogy to John Cage, who included silence as a non-sound in his music, Paik uses the emptiness of the image for his art. This a film which depicts only itself and its own material qualities, and which, as an ‘anti-film,’ is meant to encourage viewers to oppose the flood of images from outside with one’s own interior images.” –Heike Helfert, MEDIEN KUNST NETZ Malcolm Le Grice *BLUE FIELD DURATION* (1972, 8 min, double-screen 16mm) “This is a two-screen film where a full frame color field slowly changes from blue to green over a period of about six minutes. The film has been intentionally scratched providing another layer of content and the source of the sound track.” –Malcolm Le Grice Malcolm Le Grice *WHITE FIELD DURATION* (1973, 12 min, double-screen 16mm) “The first five minutes the screens are practically clear white. During the next five minutes, we begin to see tiny, unimposing scratches moving across the screens. The scratches obviously were placed there, but they also could be taken for dust by some. For the next five minutes or so both screens flicker lightly and softly and there are images (‘screens’) of different grey (white) intensities within the larger images (or screens). During the last five minutes or so slight traces of some representational imagery begin to be barely visible on both screens, and then the screens blank out again. It is a very pure, a very classical piece.” –Jonas Mekas, VILLAGE VOICE, 1973 Robert Huot *SCRATCH* (1966-1967, 11 min, 16mm, silent) “While SCRATCH is nothing more than eleven minutes of dark leader with a continuous handmade scratch, the resulting imagery varies a good deal, depending on how deeply Huot dug into the emulsion: when the scratch is shallow, for example, it seems to bead and move up through the image; when the scratch is deep, it seems to remain within the frame, vibrating horizontally.” –Scott MacDonald, “The Films of Robert Huot: 1967-1972”, QUARTERLY REVIEW OF FILM STUDIES Anouk De Clercq *BLACK* (2015, 5 min, 35mm, silent) Simultaneously boundless and intimate, collective and personal, an ode to and an example of a cinematic experience that is becoming increasingly rare, the darkness of a movie theater in the course of the projection of a 35mm film print. Total running time: ca. 50 min. *[Please note: since the BLUE FIELD DURATION print was not delivered in time for the first screening, we've added a second screening of this program on Wednesday, August 10 at 7:30; this screening will include the full lineup of films.]* *FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 2022* Venue type: *Live, physical event* No Name Cinema <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=69124c6a77&e=857b71a9cb> 7pm MST, No Name Cinema, 2013 Pinon Street, Santa Fe *Hands on a Hardbody* with opening short film *Welcome to Spivey's Corner*, directed by Kier Cline, 1978, 17 min, color, sound Hollerin' - the world's oldest form of communication. In this short documentary, hollerers converge on the small town of Spivey's Corner, North Carolina to compete at the National Hollerin' Contest. Contenders showcase their talents as they shriek, scream, bellow, and shout into a microphone for a crowd of hollerin' enthusiasts whilst giving us insight into this complex yet primitive form of rural communication. *Hands on a Hardbody*, directed by S.R. Bindler, 1997, 98 min, color, sound In 1995 the Jack Long Nissan dealership held its fourth annual “Hands on a Hardbody” competition in which twenty four contestants were tasked with becoming the last person left standing while maintaining hand contact with a brand new Nissan Hardbody pickup truck. Documented with Hi-8 video cameras in filmmaker S.R.Bindler’s hometown of Longview, Texas, HOHB covers seventy seven hours of human endurance. Beginning as a comedy of absurd competition and the camaraderie of suffering, the film simultaneously becomes a philosophical and psychological examination on the limits of mental exhaustion, lust for material possessions, and the depravity of capitalism. Cowboy narrator and winner of the inaugural 1992 competition, Benny Perkins, insightfully guides us through the film’s whirlwind of humor, heartbreak, and sleep deprived hallucination. As Perkins states, “this is a human drama thing. ... You gotta have the mettle. ... If you can't run with the big dogs, stay up on the porch with the pups.” Masks Required *SUNDAY, AUGUST 14, 2022* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Anthology Film Archives <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=b401011863&e=857b71a9cb> 1pm ET, 32 Second Avenue, New York *MONO NO AWARE COMMUNITY SCREENING PROGRAM* Featuring the world premiere of films made locally with the support of MONO in July 2022.
