I am posting this item per the request of the "Bruce Baillie Team".
Dear all, We are reaching out to you today to introduce you to The Bruce Baillie project. We launched a Kickstarter for the project and we need your help! The Bruce Baillie project is comprised of a bi-lingual (Spanish/English) publication and touring retrospective of Baillie’s work. This project will bring Bruce’s work to audiences in Latin America, Europe and the United States, with a touring 16mm retrospective of his films. The bilingual book will be published by Interior XIII and Distrital Film Festival this summer. Our amazing contributors to the book are: Steve Anker, Peter Hutton, Denah Johnston, Janis Crystal Lipzin, Scott MacDonald, Richard Peña, Andréa Picard, JP Sniadecki, Ben Rivers and Peter Tscherkassky. This book will also include some letters from Baillie’s close friends and great filmmakers Chick Strand and Stan Brakhage. Bruce is an under-recognized filmmaker whose films, and work as an advocate, have had a huge impact on the legacy and vitality of experimental and avant-garde filmmaking. We want to recognize that impact. We are raising money to organize the screenings, and hopefully to expand the scope of the tour and bring the films to more cities and venues. This money will also be used to help preserve Baillie's films and to publish the book. We are asking friends and lovers of BB's work to spread the word. Please feel free to post and share the project, forward this email, and spread the word within your communities both on and offline. If you would like to post and need any more information or images to share, do not hesitate to ask! There are only 14 days left!
