Afterimage was founded on the principle of an on-going commitment to avant-garde cinema, to radical cinema, to ‘new’ cinema understood both aesthetically and politically. Afterimage emphasized the importance of the writings of filmmakers themselves. Over 13 issues, alongside critical essays by important critics such as Noël Burch, B. Ruby Rich, and Regina Cornwell, it published manifestoes, scripts, theoretical texts, polemical essays from filmmakers Jean-Luc Godard, Glauber Rocha, Julio García Espinosa, Hollis Frampton, Paul Sharits, Peter Wollen and Laura Mulvey, Malcolm Le Grice, Yvonne Rainer, Raúl Ruiz, Stephen Dwoskin, Jan Švankmajer, and many others, as well as by important precursors for a radical cinema like Dziga Vertov and Jean Epstein. Special issues were devoted to Michael Snow and to Derek Jarman. Each publication was effectively a special issue around a theme or filmmaker. Presenting this series at Anthology Film Archives offers the opportunity to acknowledge how indebted Afterimage was to Film Culture magazine. It was a model for us of a partisan publication that came to be deeply committed to the promotion and representation of the New American Cinema and its rich avant-garde manifestations of the 1960s and 1970s. Afterimage similarly prided itself on its design. So just as important was our admiration of the handsome issues of Film Culture designed by Fluxus founder George Maciunas. As a consequence of this influence every issue of Afterimage had a distinctive and different design with title pages and full-bleed images. If the first six issues circled around the ‘two avant-gardes’ and debates in cinema theory, later issues continued the commitment to new, radical cinema but also considered ‘neglected’ works and figures, like *BORDERLINE* in the past and – at the time of publication – Raúl Ruiz. Toward the end of Afterimage’s run, new editorial energies steered us in the direction of ‘troublesome cases’: first a festschrift on Derek Jarman, then our final issue featuring the Quay Brothers, Švankmajer, Bokanowski, and other visionary animators.” –Simon Field “The Afterimage Reader” will be available at Anthology for a discounted price during the series.

Combining photos, records, and other materials from his personal archives with 16mm film footage he recently shot in Senegal, Harris situates “the carcerality of the social welfare state and child services in relation to Black childhood in the US” within the broader context of the transatlantic slave trade and the French Catholic Church’s colonization of West Africa and the Americas. His hometown of St. Louis, MO and Saint-Louis, Senegal are presented as fraternal colonized twin cities. The event is talking place in collaboration with Fordham University and Union Docs. A special video installation/performance by Fordham professor Catalina Alvarez’s students featuring interviews, field recordings, and images of historical documents related to the destruction of the San Juan Hill neighborhood and Lincoln Square community in the 1950s to make way for Lincoln Center, Fordham College, and other developments will precede the event.

She has created a poetic, conceptual and philosophical body of work in a variety of media. Many of her videos are concerned with the content, musicality and experiential qualities of language. They ferry viewers through philosophical inquiry with the unexpected oars of play, emotionalism, story, and humor. Many balance several seemingly unrelated concepts––subtly suggesting or brazenly demanding a focused and imaginative reception. Many create gently complex, emotional studies. Others are funny; a sorrowful sort of funny. There are videos of obsessive observing and ambient sounds; small artificial fireworks, animals, and silence. They are tightly wound, dense, and light simultaneously. Barber’s films and videos have has been screened nationally and internationally in solo and group shows at MOMA, NY, The Tate Modern, London; The Whitney Museum of American Art, NY; The Paris Cinematheque; The Walker Art Center, MN; MOCA Los Angeles, The Wexner Center for Art, OH, among other galleries, museums and festivals. Her essays, stories and poems have been published in books, magazines and online journals.

WOODS* M. Woods’ *COMMODITY TRADING: DIES IRAE* is a surrealist nightmare wrapped in a documentary chronicling the void that emerged with the election of Donald Trump. The movie weaves a narrative through political hells, using 16mm film, mixed media digital experimentation, and archival footage to paint a hallucinatory landscape of Southern California’s break from reality. This is M’s 4th feature film, made possible through a residency with Lightcone Paris. M’s work has been previously exhibited at The Flaherty Seminar, The Rotterdam International Film Festival, The Ann Arbor Film Festival, Oberhausen International Film Festival, and Collectif Jeune Cinéma.

Wade. Now, the opening half of our annual SisPix show is proud enough to boast a diverse selection of resonant pieces from contemporary female makers on a variety of women's issues, tho we're equally honored to dedicate the evening's latter half to the initial group screening of the Abortion Clinic Film Collective's righteous howls of rage! So, in the first 40 mins. of (mostly) new work we'll be treated to Salise Hughes' *Big Daddy Learns a Lesson (Essay)*, Sabine Gruffat's *Moving or Being Moved*, Christina Ibarra's *Dirty Laundry*, Kate Novack's *Hysterical Girl*, and more! Then our second block sets out to amplify the angry voices and visions of of a newly developing network of fierce feminists producing protest pieces to rally our will to resist the retrograde forces raiding our hard-won rights. Among that cadre is Lynne Sachs, Sasha Freyer Waters, Kristy Guevara-Flanagan, Ray Rea, Doan Hoang Curtis, Kelly Gallagher, and Courtney Stephens! $10-100 fund-raiser for the Ntl.

Bruno Delgado Ramo is a filmmaker and artist-researcher who explores site-specific features and incorporates them into his films and screening arrangements. He devises his work as research grounded in material and experimental practice of cinema means, leading to films, installations, live proposals and text matter. His work has been internationally presented at film festivals and art spaces. The CONNECTIVITY THROUGH CINEMA series will present the work of artists, film-makers and curators who are traveling or presenting special interactive programs in-person. Our hope is to engage the community by showing work with a focus on post-screening discussion. This series is made possible by support from the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA). *ONGOING* Venue type: *Virtual, online event* Riverwest Radio <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=400f060125&e=857b71a9cb> streaming 24/7 *THE LONG CONVERSATION* THE LONG CONVERSATION with Xav Leplae and Stephanie Barber is on indefinite hold.
