Hello Makayla,
I caught news today of an gallery exhibit, "Nathaniel Dorsky: Film and Film
Stills", that's online at
https://www.peterblumgallery.com/viewing-room/nathaniel-dorsky
and I thought you and other Frameworkers might want to know about it.
Also.
I was fortunate and received one of the Interbay Cinema Society Lightpress
grants last year. One of the pieces I had scanned was Renga, a six minute,
twelve-filmmaker film that came together in a graduate seminar Nathaniel
Dorsky ran at the San Francisco Art Institute in the fall of 1989. You can
watch it directly from Vimeo at https://vimeo.com/314924883 or read about
and view it at https://erictheise.com/films/renga/
It contains some of Dorsky's footage and was strongly shaped by his
thinking at the time. (As an aside, Laura Poitras was in the seminar so
there's some of her footage in there, too.) I've sort of been shamed for
keeping Renga "alive" yet a friend is fond enough of the film that he
borrowed my print to screen at his 50th birthday celebration.
Worth a look if only because a twelve-maker collaboration is pretty unusual.
Thanks again Interbay Cinema Society and Lightpress.
Cheers, Eric
