Eviction is the reason for the removal of Bay-area artist Jay DeFeo’s one-ton, mattress-sized painting “The White Rose,” filmed by Bruce Conner; it’s the reason that might motivate one of the characters in Christopher Maclaine’s *THE END* to kill his landlord; and the reason for the fight documented and contextualized by Curtis Choy’s *THE FALL OF THE I-HOTEL*. From another angle, all three films are about the indignity of not having a place, literal or metaphorical, in the world, that can’t be taken from you.

His substantial and eclectic body of work includes half a dozen feature length essay films, and numerous mid length and short films, new media pieces and installations, interactive digital, video, web-based and hypermedia works, as well as co-editing and designing DAMP (2008), which took the pulse of Vancouver’s new media scene in book form. Even this list only scratches the surface of Hockenhull’s polymorphous pursuits. At the title implies, his latest essay film, *FOTO CINE MAMA & I*, is both an autobiographical rumination on memory, and a philosophical disquisition on the technology of photography, cinema, and AI. Starting with a trove of family photos, Hockenhull explores how images function as mental constructs and ideological stamps. This film engages with Walter Benjamin’s ’optical unconscious’ and Ernst Jünger’s theories on self-objectification, drawing on milestones from photography’s history and contemporary artists like Jeff Wall. Prior to the screening, Hockenhull will present a lecture titled “Montage and AI: The Emergence of the Eighth Art,” delving into the rapidly evolving interplay between AI and media, and illustrating how generative systems transform image making into a dynamic archive of visual memories and play. Inspired by Ricciotti Canudo’s vision of cinema as the seventh art, Hockenhull will discuss AI’s role in extending the legacy of cinematographic montage and cinematographic creativity. This event offers an inspiring and radically informed take on technology, representation and society. In addition to the Vancity Theatre talk and screening on the 8th, there will be two more screenings of *Foto Cine Mama & I* in the second screen, the Lochmaddy Studio Theatre at VIFF: Fri. Oct 11, 8:00pm & Sun.

Life is surely all mystery but filmmaking is indeed a ritual for me.” — Betzy Bromberg Internationally recognized for her vivid and otherworldly cinematic experiences, Los Angeles filmmaker Betzy Bromberg harnesses the fundamental qualities of film to explore astonishing microcosmic vistas of incredible mystery and beauty. Long devoted to 16mm analog filmmaking, Bromberg’s career has evolved from her diaristic and punk-inflected works of the 1970s to the ecstatic, organic abstractions she has explored in her last few films, though her interest in presence, consciousness, and the transience of existence remain vivid themes throughout. Bromberg’s films are unabashedly immersive, intensely sensorial, and unexpectedly affecting, conjuring audiovisual experiences that emphasize the fluid, ephemeral transcendence of consciousness and subjective experience. *Glide of Transparency*—an intimate reverie on the hidden phantasmagoria of nature—is, in many ways, the culmination thus far of her singular filmmaking sensibility.

I wasn't calling it that or thinking in those terms. The significant thing that changed for me was that instead of constructing everything – the space, inhabitants, objects – I was using existing ones. Then the editing became completely free from the actual and at that point it is all about constructing a film that works on its own terms, almost disregarding the source. Each subsequent film has developed from this process, some films remaining more faithful to the actual place and person, while others veer off wildly in their own way.” –Ben Rivers *This is My Land* | Ben Rivers | 2006 | 16mm to digital | 14 mins *Ghost Strata* | Ben Rivers | 2019 | 16mm to HD | 46 mins In the presence of Ben Rivers. *___________________________________________________________________* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Re:Voir <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=08f4d7c8f7&e=857b71a9cb> 8:00pm UTC+1, L'Archipel, 17 bd de Strasbourg, Paris, France 75010 *CINEXPÉRIMENTAUX #13 : ALAIN MAZARS* Screening in the presence of Alain Mazars, Frédérique Devaux, Michel Amarger and Pip Chodorov. Travels through France (where Alain Mazars was born), Spain, China, Laos, and Burma... Inner journeys to explore autism, revisit the sacred, rediscover childhood play, retrace George Orwell’s footsteps, and map the current political situation in Burma; to film wandering, constant discovery, learning, and occasionally taking risks... These are just a few of the elements of Alain Mazars’ cinema. Personal forms of filmmaking emerge from his travels and encounters: experimenting with different shooting possibilities, framing, exaggerated camera movements, exploring the limits of direct filming, the power of editing, combining pixilation and naturalistic shots, playing with light, and researching modern sound design techniques. The filmmaker also creates symbolic and metaphorical scenes that he believes are related to alchemy. *SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2024* *October 12 - 17* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Eye Institute <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=9e098249c6&e=857b71a9cb> 7:00pm UTC+1, Amsterdam’s IJ harbour, Amsterdam, Netherlands *Underground American Avant-Garde Film in the 1960s* This autumn, Eye Filmmuseum highlights the American avant-garde cinema of the 1960s. The exhibition and film programme feature both iconic and lesser-known works, showcasing the era's vibrant experimental spirit. Highlights include films by pivotal avant-garde figures such as Jonas Mekas, Maya Deren and Stan Brakhage, as well as contributions from prominent visual artists like Bruce Conner, Yayoi Kusama, Yoko Ono, and Andy Warhol. This exploration of cinematic innovation is set against the backdrop of a changing society. Dancing bridges, introspective diary fragments and dreamy stop motions – just some examples of experiments carried out by a loose collection of avant-garde filmmakers in the 1960s in the United States. Their aim: to shake off the fetters of Hollywood and the dominant film industry and to reinvent cinema, as it were, as a visual medium. Please join us at the exhibition opening on 12 October from 20:30. Explore the exhibition and enjoy a unique screening of Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey's *Chelsea Girls* (1966). Feel free to enter the cinema and come and go as you please during its 210-minutes runtime. DJs Loma Doom & Lazer Gazer. In this exhibition, Eye showcases the diversity that is such a feature of this era of transdisciplinary film experiments: from independent, unconventional films for cinemas, some self-operated, to expanded experiments such as Andy Warhol’s eight-hour *Empire* (1964) or Stan VanDerBeek’s imposing 11-channel installation *Movie Mural* (1965-1968). The latter to be screened in the Netherlands for the first time. Filmmaker Jonas Mekas, spokesperson for the New American Cinema Group, captures the essence of this wave of filmmakers with one succinct statement. “We don’t want false, polished, slick films – we prefer them rough, unpolished, but alive; we don’t want rosy films: we want them the color of blood.” The example they set and manifesto they recorded, exerted a profound and lasting influence on successive generations of filmmakers in the US and beyond. The exhibition zooms in on the source of this underground movement, tracing the emergence of experimental cinema in the US and the formation of collectives that were active from the early 1960s, among them the New American Cinema Group, also known as the Film-Makers’ Cooperative in New York, Fluxus and Canyon Cinema in San Francisco. The exhibition continues in Eye cinemas, where the best-known and longer 16mm films by leading makers from the underground scene will be screened in full. The programmes also look at the international context, assess the lasting impact and influence of New American Cinema outside the United States, and examine the situation today. On the night of the American election (5 November 2024), various speakers will discuss how the underground scene of the 1960s highlighted political issues and how that is reflected in the current political climate. The programme shines a special spotlight on psychedelic film – an important theme in 1960s America, which is undergoing a revival today. Moreover, psychedelics are inextricably linked with the ‘liberal’ character of Amsterdam.

His quest to resolve the ever-increasing dichotomy between art and science led him to design the program of the Light Workshop at the New Bauhaus in Chicago in 1937 and to found the Center for Advanced Visual Studies (CAVS) at MIT in 1967. Kepes, who became involved in the European avant-garde movement at a young age, joined fellow Hungarian artist László Moholy-Nagy’s Berlin studio in 1930 with the hope of mastering motion pictures, which were then seen as the most socially impactful artistic medium. Although Kepes’s aspiration to become a film director was never realized, his friendships and collaborations with cinema legends like Dziga Vertov, Boris Kaufmann, Maya Deren, Saul Bass, and Robert Gardner profoundly shaped his entire body of work. CAVS, which Kepes founded at MIT, became one of the most internationally significant workshops for experimental filmmaking and early video art. Many prominent figures in the field, such as Peter Campus, Juan Downey, Antoni Muntadas, Nam June Paik, Stan VanDerBeek, and Aldo Tambellini, either worked there or were associated with the Center. This film series brings together Kepes’s previously unknown moving-image works – which utilize cinematography to illustrate specific visual problems – as well as films by Kepes’s colleagues and students, and later works that emerged from CAVS following Kepes’s retirement, which demonstrate his ongoing legacy. In addition, the program marks the NYC premiere of the new documentary, GYÖRGY KEPES. INTERTHINKING ART + SCIENCE, directed by Márton Orosz, who is also the guest-programmer of this series. Márton Orosz will be here in person to present all four programs! For more info about the documentary, GYÖRGY KEPES. INTERTHINKING ART + SCIENCE, click here.

The filmmaker's desire to make everyday images "strange" at the editing table, to learn to see them fresh and to estrange them from our senses, makes his films seem - in all the different social realities they contain - always distanced as well, as if they led to another world beyond the concrete, beyond time and defined space. In Angerame's films, which pay homage to films from early cinema and the classic avant-garde to American underground films of the 1960s and 70s and non-narrative films of the present day, an amazingly comprehensive history of the "visionary" moving image is always present. It may be that precisely his refusal to adopt a signature style has diminished the immediate influence of Angerame's films; however, Angerame's decision to work "universally," not to be swayed by considerations of the art market, and to experiment with very different styles increases the pedagogical worth of his films. It's not surprising to learn that Angerame, born in 1949, teaches at several American schools in addition to having served as the executive director of the American avant-garde distribution center Canyon Cinema from 1980 to 2012. His films testify to an encyclopedic knowledge of film - and also his desire to satisfy, with his own audio-visual offerings, the very different desires of his audience.”—Pat Matthews, Long Island Free Press.
