[Frameworks] Andrew Noren

[Albert Alcoz]

Two years ago I was able to watch a copy of his film Charmed Particles at the New York Public Library (image attached).Researching their catalogue it seems they own three parts of The Adventures of The Exquisite Corps on 16 mm copies:Charmed Particles, Imaginary Light and The Lighted Field.https://nypl.bibliocommons.com/search?t=smart&q=andrew%20noren&commit=Search&searchOpt=catalogue
 
Besides Scott MacDonalds' marvellous interview (thank you Carl for adding that passage) there's a link on the Making Light Of It website with some precious documents about his films:http://making-light-of-it.blogspot.com.es/2012/04/andrew-noren.html

 The fact that Noren was an archivist by trade gives hope to the fact that
his elements are probably thoughtfully stored somewhere (at least the ones
that weren't destroyed in an early fire, if I remember correctly) and
would be eventually available for preservation.
