Re: [Frameworks] Sad news - Terry Cannon, founder of Filmforum, passes away

2020-08-02 Thread Stephen Anker
Hi Adam,
I am greatly saddened to hear of Terry's passing. He was a wonderful
community spirit and made a lasting contribution to the world of
experimental film in starting Filmforum. A terrific host, I made my first
trip to Los Angeles to present a program of film at Flmforum in the mid
80's  and he, Mary and Buddy Kilchesty gave me a whirlwind tour of LA that
I'll never forget.
My deepest sympathies to Mary, you and everyone at LA filmforum.
And I am so grateful that the organization lives on.
Warmest wishes, Steve

[Frameworks] Carolee Schneemann Celebration st REDCAT in LA This Saturday

2020-02-28 Thread Stephen Anker
*FILM AT REDCAT PRESENTS*

Sat Feb 29 |4:00pm & 8:30 pm|

 Jack H. Skirball Series

 $15 [members $9]

*A single ticket is good for BOTH 4:00pm and*

*8:30pm programs*



*DANGEROUS EROTICS: A TRIBUTE TO CAROLEE SCHNEEMANN*



REDCAT celebrates the life and work of Carolee Schneemann, one of the great
artists of the 20th century, with a panel discussion and selection of her
films and videos. Schneemann’s performances, films, paintings and
installations were at the center of world art culture from 1960 until her
death in 2019. Unrelenting in confronting traditional roles and taboos
imposed upon women, Schneemann defiantly embraced female sexuality and
physicality with a power and immediacy that remains groundbreaking. Her
early investigations into gender and “forbidden aspects of the female
experience” (C.S.) laid the groundwork for much feminist art of the 1980s
and 90s. The program will include music by James Tenney, her long-term
partner and collaborator.



*Co-sponsored by the Herb Alpert School of Music at CalArts and Los Angeles
Filmforum. Thanks to Electronic Arts Intermix and the Schneemann Foundation
for their support.*



*Los Angeles Video Premieres*



*Panelists in person: Peggy Ahwesh, Maggie Nelson,  Lauren Pratt, Kenneth
White *



“In 1963, to use my body as an extension of my painting-constructions,” she
later said, “was to challenge and threaten the psychic territorial power
lines by which women were admitted to the Art Stud Club.” — Carolee
Schneemann



A genius of gesture, word, image, sensuality, and vitality, Carolee
Schneemann died at 6 pm on March 6, 2019 in her beloved 18th-century
Huguenot house in Tillson, New York, surrounded by her cat (and the spirits
of so many others) and the comfort of friendships and lovers she had known
for decades. Over a lifetime of making art, pleasure, provocations, home,
more art and always art—her emotional exactitude and generosity touched the
earth, the art world, and the lives of countless human and nonhuman
intimates and strangers. — *The Brooklyn Rail*



“A feminist visionary and one of the most influential artists of the late
20th century.” — *The New York Times*



“Prior to Schneemann, the female body in art was mute and functioned almost
exclusively as a mirror of masculine desire.” — Jan Avgikos, *Artforum*



“The magnitude of Schneemann’s influence is undeniable… When she describes
her body as a pleasurable weapon, a missile she sends into our repressive
culture to blow it apart, Madonna's in-your-face eroticism immediately
comes to mind.” — Jane Harris, *Plexus*



“Carolee Schneemann was a visionary. She challenged taboos and was
undaunted by censorship, including cancelled screenings of her 1967 film
*Fuses*, bans on imagery documenting her 1975 performance *Interior Scroll*,
and attacks on her later political work… Her language is the visceral, yet
intensely political, language of the body, of gesture, of sensuality and
eroticism. Even today, she remains radical.” — Joy Garnett, National
Coalition Against Censorship



“Carolee spent 45 of the 60 active years of her professional career
creating work with intensity and integrity, a feminist artist before the
art world knew of such a thing…. She shared her ardent attention to the
erotics of creative living, her art summing up the intensity of her
approach to friends, lovers, cats and her creative practice all meshed into
one great life work.” — Amelia Jones, *The Guardian*

“Schneemann’s influence is profound. Artists informed by her work… include
Matthew Barney, Marilyn Minter, Ragnar Kjartansson, and Lena Dunham—a list
to which one might add Narcissister, Ana Mendieta, Rist, and just about
anyone who, over the past half-century, has worked with bodies and
identities as intricate, powerful, multivalent things—and as endless
dynamos for exploration rather than as loci for shame.” — *ARTnews*, March
6, 2019


*PROGRAMS:*


*4:00PM - FILMS AND VIDEOS BY CAROLEE SCHNEEMANN [I]*



*Fuses* (1964–67/2007, 29:37 min., 16mm, color, silent)

With Carolee Schneemann, James Tenney and Kitch
“Schneemann’s self-shot erotic film remains a controversial classic. The
notorious masterpiece... [is] a silent celebration in color of heterosexual
lovemaking. The film unifies erotic energies within a domestic environment
through cutting, superimposition and layering of abstract impressions
scratched into the celluloid itself... *Fuses *succeeds perhaps more than
any other film in objectifying the sexual streamings of the body’s
mind.” — *The
Guardian*, London

“Made in increments between 1964 and 1967, *Fuses* is a beautiful, complex
work, among Ms. Schneemann’s most moving achievements. Like much of her
art, it bridges interior and exterior worlds: we see the lovers in their
darkened bedroom and we see a rural landscape in changing seasons beyond
the window. It’s hard to follow: organically, it’s here, then it’s there.
But the flow, metaphoric and visual, is rich. And like so much

Vincent Ramos, Carolee Schneemann, and Jennifer West.

"In her brief life, Marjorie Keller made nearly thirty films in her own
distinctive cinematic voice. From her earliest efforts in the late 1960s,
Marjorie was attracted to film's potential to portray the complexity of
private events and personal relationships, mostly in response to family
life. Her gestural and vivid camerawork, along with an intricate approach
to poetic editing, created a body of work that is unsurpassed in its
intimacy and its conveyance of subtle feelings and complex responses to her
personal interactions.
Marjorie's subjects included her old family house, young women friends,
childhood fantasy figures, lovers, siblings, teenage girls, her parents,
and her husband. Issues sprang naturally from sharing her life with the
people and places she knew, and their range is astonishing: childbirth,
sexuality, memory, the cultural roles women, political activism, the
sensuality of daily objects, urban survival, rural pleasures and the values
of classical tradition. While deeply influential on both feminist art and
the culture of personal experimental filmmaking, Marjorie's work exists
beyond categorization or reductive explanation. It is alive with multiple,
often-contradictory meanings and remains a personal experience.
