 BAY AREA LENS: SECA FILM AWARDS
  Tanya Zimbardo, assistant curator of media arts, SFMOMA Tanya Zimbardo
  introduces a program of films culled from the SECA Film as Art Awards,
  which ran from 1973 to 1998, and discusses the role of the awards in
  relation to the museum's longer history of supporting Bay Area
  avant-garde film. Including Petter Hutton's New York, Near Sleep (for
  Saskia) (1972), Les Blank's Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe (1980), and
  David Sherman's Tuning the Sleeping Machine (1996), the selection of
  experimental film shorts reflects a range of approaches to cinematic
  dreaming. Presented in conjunction with Fifty Years of Bay Area Art: The
  SECA Awards; total running time: 60 min. Museum and program admission
  are free.

  of three years in the Sierra Nevada foothills, Pine Flat explores the
  interactions of children with their local surroundings. A quiet intimacy
  between camera and subject develops as we watch the children play, read,
  hang out, and engage in other day-to-day activities. $5 general; free
  for SFMOMA members or with museum admission (requires a free ticket,
  which can be picked up in the Haas Atrium).
