Two companionable masters of contemporary silent film will present a very
special program of intimacy and risk usually reserved for invitational
sub-rosa, subterranean home viewing. Call it (Koda)chrome Dreams or The
Basement Films. The works presented will be projected as unique prints or
spliced original reversal stocks. The most recent works have never been shown
in public before. This is a night for exhilarating cinema celebrating the
poetics of perception in everyday experience. The timing of this program is in
honor of the inclusion of Dorsky's The Return (NY premiere at VIEWS NYFF 2011)
and Hiler’s Words of Mercury (World Premiere at VIEWS NYFF 2011) in this year’s
Biennial of The Whitney Museum of American Art. Both Words of Mercury and The
Return made several of the most informed top ten lists of 2011 in national
journals. With inspirations deriving from Japanese renga poetry, medieval
stained glass, ancient and contemporary music,
and a continuum of cinema that embraces Ford, Ozu, Brakhage (and many others),
Hiler and Dorsky have each forged a personal language of open confidences,
films that are experimental, shorn of narrative fiction, addressing and
involving the viewer directly in the adventure of seeing and feeling.
Curated by Mark McElhatten.
In conjunction with this event, Film Society will present free screenings of
