I think millions of people are that way. Not just women, but men too. They don’t know why they exist and they have no direction in their life. They have no reason for existing. (You see these people like Wanda and Mr. Dennis are not – they are not aware of their condition as maybe better educated people would be. They’re not aware of the situation they’re in.)” –Barbara Loden, on *WANDA* “*WANDA* is a movie about ‘someone’. […] ‘When I say someone, I mean someone who has been isolated, someone who has been considered on himself, separated from social conditions where he is. Like extracted from society and observed by you. I think there is always something in the self, in you, that society cannot reach, something insurmountable, impenetrable and decisive.” –Marguerite Duras, on *WANDA* Barbara Loden’s *WANDA* explores the phenomenon of wandering, which is both the movement of an anonymous identity, without purpose, aimless, seeking something abstract, but which also represents a kind of questioning – not actively critical, but rather a form of existential interrogation of oneself through the environment being traversed. The gender dimension amplifies this questioning. It’s no wonder that the image of a wandering woman should emerge as a major metaphor within the cinema of the 1960s and 70s: in the midst of a cultural and sexual revolution, this figure comes to embody the question of what to do with this newfound “freedom” when women’s role in society remained unresolved and undefined outside of the domestic sphere. The films in this series track the development of this motif in global cinema from the mid-1960s to the mid-1990s. The protagonists of these films rupture the usual ambivalence between feminine/passive and masculine/active roles. Whether helmed by women (Loden, Chantal Akerman, Ulrike Ottinger, etc) or men (Ken Loach, Ousmane Sembène, Masao Adachi, and so on), their trajectories complicate the “male gaze,” as we as viewers feel intimately connected to them, constantly wondering about their wandering: What do they want? Where would that take them? How do they feel? These roving women are largely unburdened by possessions, carrying only their child, a hotel room key, a backpack, a handbag that will soon be stolen, or a mask – a relic of a stolen identity. They have too many drinks and meet strangers who they will fall for or forget, fight or befriend, hitch a ride from, or make love with for the sake of the sexual revolution. Yet, they glide like oil on water, sometimes drawing attention but without altering the space, without making history. It’s through this drifting, like a quiet cry for help, that they open a space to reflect on the situation of women, on the experience of inhabiting an indifferent environment – built by men, for men. They testify to our contemporary time of uncertainty, underscoring – like an echo – the mobility of those who have no choice but to be in movement. “Wandering Women” is guest-programmed by Nina Verneret, who also wrote the introduction and, unless otherwise noted, the individual film descriptions.

In-person: Curator Shai Heredia. The history of experimental film in India is tied to the history of India’s quest for modernity and is particularly visible in the experimental films on science and technology produced by the Films Division of India during the cultural revolution of the late 60’s and early 70’s. This program will showcase a selection of these avant-garde state supported films that reflect the radical values, perspectives and ideas that shaped the vision of Indian democracy. These films remind us of the complexity of early post-colonial Indian modernism as was illustrated in scientist Homi Bhabha’s legendary statement, “It is true that India neither produced the motorcar, the refrigerator, the airplane. Nor did it manufacture these in the overwhelming quantities of other industrialized countries. But for hundreds of years when the Indian peasant did not have to work, he sat in the shade of a tree and thought. He thought the philosophy of truth in life, and he thought as an artist in action.” – Shai Heredia Curated by Shai Heredia.

This program brings together the newly-preserved films, his most famous moving-image work WEEGEE’S NEW YORK, and a selection of other films that Weegee participated in, as actor, consultant, special effects designer, or set photographer. Arthur Fellig (1899-1968), known to the world as “Weegee”, was among the most unusual of American photographers and artists. Notorious for his crime photography, Weegee spent the 1930s and 40s depicting the seedy underbelly of New York City, generating vivid, gut-wrenching, and frankly sensational images of crime scenes, police activity, and the down-and-out. Exposed to a wide audience through his legendary photo book, “Naked City”, these images flew in the face of the comparatively staid “art photography” of the time. As Weegee’s fame grew, he increasingly turned his attention on Hollywood, documenting the celebrities, premiere events, and larger ecology of the movie industry, while also indulging his interest in developing expressionistically surreal camera techniques to create bizarrely manipulated images of reality. By the 1950s he had begun utilizing these techniques within his burgeoning interest in 16mm cinematography. While Weegee’s body of photographic work has long been celebrated, his 16mm experimental films of the 1940s, 50s, and 60s are virtually unknown – a situation that’s poised to change thanks to our new preservations. On view at ICP from January 23-May 5, 2025, “Weegee: Society of the Spectacle” aims to reconcile the two sides of Weegee through an investigation of his focus, throughout his career, on a critique of 20th century popular culture and its insatiable appetite for spectacle. The exhibition is curated by Clément Chéroux, Director of the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson (FHCB), Paris, in collaboration with the Weegee Archive at the International Center of Photography (ICP), New York.

Once a month, members meet in different studios to present their work-in-progress projects, talk about ongoing funding applications, and receive constructive feedback. With "All that Glitters," the network is presenting a selection of short films by its members for the first time. The short film program brings together individual artistic positions that reflect experimental extensions of the documentary genre. Participating artists: Veneta Androva, Jessica Arseneau, Elisa Jule Braun, Marlene Denningmann, Vanessa Gravenor, Zeno Gries, Laura Leppert, Miljana Nikovic, Nicolás Rupcich, Stefanie Schwarzwimmer, Stefania Smolkina, Tsai, I-Chieh Based on the phrase "All that glitters is not gold," the films ask for other observations of today's reality conditions in the hope of a new dissemination of these very terms *___________________________________________________________________* Venue type: *Live, physical event* Shapeshifters Cinema <https://list-manage.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4b83d0e66f4638a082b103d27&id=08e8d36627&e=857b71a9cb> 7pm PST, 567 5th St., Oakland, CA *Experimental Karaoke with Roger Beebe & Friends* Experimental film chameleon Roger Beebe returns to Shapeshifters with guest VJ Jesse Malmed for an evening of experimental karaoke.
