7:30 PM, 32 Second Avenue
NOT A PAPER TIGER: DEEDEE HALLECK: PROGRAM 1: WORKING WITH CHILDREN
The first part of Halleck's career is distinguished in large part by her devotion to working with children - under the auspices of several different organizations she utilized film as a tool for engaging with underprivileged kids and encouraging them to express themselves. This uniquely pedagogical approach to the medium produced numerous films that are little seen today but remain vibrant, vital, and charming. The first film in this program, CHILDREN MAKE MOVIES, was made at the Lower East Side's Lillian Wald Recreation Rooms. Most of the other works screening here were the result of Halleck's most sustained venture into working with children: from 1968-72, she taught filmmaking at the Otisville School for Boys, a reformatory run by the NY State Division for Youth. Her efforts there, which encompassed both showing movies to her students and helping them to make their own films, gave rise to numerous 16mm shorts, a selection from which we'll be presenting here (along with a
related film, HEY THERE LONELY GIRL, made at the Martin Luther King Jr. Center of the A.M.E. Zion Church in Middletown, NY, with a group of girls who were friends of Halleck's Otisville students). DeeDee Halleck CHILDREN MAKE MOVIES (1961, 13 min, 16mm, b&w) OTISVILLE SCHOOL FOR BOYS FILMS: Jose Rodriguez GET ON THE GOOD FOOT (1972, 17.5 min, 16mm) Vanio & Spann THE BLOODY CRIME CRUSHER (1971, 12 min, 16mm) Milton Lefty Diaz THE BEGINNING OF MY END (1969, 8 min, 16mm) Abraham Cardona HAIR (1972, 5 min, 16mm) Charles Smith & Kenneth Brown A MADMAN'S WORLD (1971, 6 min, 16mm) Flora Hunter & Cindy D HEY THERE LONELY GIRL (1970, 8.5 min, 16mm) Total running time: ca. 75 min.

If there is such a thing as American Zen, Broughton is the master of it. "Broughton was and is a poet, sometimes a dramatist. Yet whatever the mode, his style is remarkably consistent: urbane and witty with the persona of the naïve, or the simpleton, or the child. Like the poems, the films record the basic rites of passage, the search for love, the primal relationships, with ironic insight: there are parents who are children, a rube who's really the artist, a loony wise man." -P. Adams Sitney Total running time: ca. 95 min.

ARTIST TALK/SCREENING WITH MARNI KOTAK
Multi-media and performance artist Marni Kotak joins us after hours on Monday June 5th to discuss her current exhibit at the gallery Treehouse, which includes the premiere of her nearly 6 hour film “Raising Baby X: Five Years”, recorded from the viewpoint of her son, whom she has outfitted with a GoPro camera since the age of three months. Long excerpts from the work will be screened. As in her previous exhibitions – among others “The Birth of Baby X” in which the artist gave birth to her son Ajax as a performance and “Mad Meds” where she slowly attempted to withdraw from psychiatric medications prescribed for postpartum depression – Kotak continues to use her own life experiences as they are happening – most recently a major fire in the artist’s home – as her work.

WINNIPEG HANDSHAKE
Short films, video, and performance from Winnipeg. Canadian artist and curator Aaron Zeghers curates "Winnipeg Handshake", an evening of works in film, video and live performance that although spanning time and mediums, come from the city of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Many are making their New York premieres. "This collection of short films presents an overview of contemporary experimental filmmaking in Winnipeg, as well as a brief history of experimental cinema in this isolated Canadian city. The work - while varied - is indoctrinated with the sentiments of the city itself, often referred to by it's practitioners as fun formalism.”-- A.Z. Works by Ed Ackerman & Gregory Zbitnew, Karen Asmundson, Alyssa Bornn, Michael Buttersworth & Cameron Cummings, Clint Enns, Scott Fitzpatrick, Walter Forsberg, Guy Maddin, Mike Maryniuk, Milos Mitrovic, Jaz Papadopolous, Heidi Phillips, Matthew Rankin, Colby Richardson, Leslie Supnet, Aaron Zeghers.

RE-VISIONS: AMERICAN EXPERIMENTAL FILM 1975-90: JEFF PREISS PGM 1
With the ongoing series RE-VISIONS: AMERICAN EXPERIMENTAL FILM 1975-90, Anthology spotlights the generation(s) of experimental film artists who emerged after the final formation in 1975 of our Essential Cinema repertory screening cycle. As hotly debated as it was widely celebrated, the EC had a seismic effect (for better or worse) on both cinema studies scholarship and international film curatorial practice. Even though the EC was intended as a direct response to the exclusion of the avant-garde from official Film History, by so concisely outlining a canon it effectively shifted critical and public interest away from the still developing experimental film movement and focused attention squarely on certain artists and works considered to be historically important. Subsequent generations of cinema artists have never received the same level of intellectual/institutional recognition or encouragement. We believe that it is high time for a re-evaluation. With the support of a
significant grant from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Anthology has been engaged in a multi-year project to preserve significant works by a wide range of cinema artists who largely became active or reached their prime after 1975. Rather than attempt to amend the EC, RE-VISIONS uses it as a starting point from which to explore the continuities, fractures, corollaries, and connections between cinema artists of the last 40 years and the previous avant-garde film movements. Much like their predecessors, these artists continued to tirelessly push at the parameters of cinematic form. RE-VISIONS features single-artist screenings of our new preservations alongside other exemplary and enticing titles spanning each artist's career, as well as group shows bringing together multiple artists. When possible, artists will appear in person to discuss their work and answer questions. Special thanks to the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Audio Mechanics, BB Optics,
Cinema Arts, Cineric, Colorlab, The Film Foundation, FotoKem, the Mike Kelly Foundation for the Arts, The National Endowment for the Arts, the National Film Preservation Foundation, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Trackwise, Video and Film Solutions, Women's Film Preservation Fund of New York Women in Film & Television, and all the artists who were involved in this project. JEFF PREISS FILMMAKER IN PERSON! Jeff Preiss has achieved the rare and delicate balancing act of working both in high-profile mainstream contexts and in the realm of uncompromisingly independent, small-gauge, experimental cinema. Inspired by the diary films of Jonas Mekas and Warren Sonbert, he began in the early 1980s making silent, semi-narrative works born out of his practice of shooting with his Regular 8mm Bolex on a daily basis. He's called these works "lyric home newsreels" that aim to "balance 'home movie' sentimentality with concerns of formal (and literal) interpretation." When the photographer
Bruce Weber saw Preiss's work he enlisted him as cinematographer on a string of collaborations including the feature documentaries BROKEN NOSES (1987) and LET'S GET LOST (1988), an acclaimed portrait of jazz legend Chet Baker. That film's success led Preiss to work directing commercials and music videos (including videos for Iggy Pop, Malcolm McLaren, REM, and the B-52s, and advertisements for Nike, Coca-Cola, Sony, American Express, etc.). In 2014, his first narrative feature, LOW DOWN, based on the life of jazz pianist Joe Albany, and starring John Hawkes, Elle Fanning, and Glenn Close, won best cinematography at the Sundance Film Festival and best actress at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Even as he has developed these mainstream projects, Preiss has continued to work in the avant-garde realm. In 2005, he co-founded the NYC experimental gallery, Orchard. And in 2012, he completed STOP, an epic home movie compiled from 2,500 rolls of 16mm film. For these
RE-VISIONS screenings, we will be debuting our own brand-new preservations of some of Preiss's earliest Regular 8mm Kodachrome films, in gorgeous 2K transfers, as well as presenting a screening of his magnum opus, STOP. All the films in this program have been restored by Anthology Film Archives with support from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. LUDLOW ST.

STOP (1995-2012, 120 min, 16mm-to-digital) "STOP is a feature-length chronicle distilled from 2,500 100-ft rolls of 16mm film shot between 1995 and 2011 - organized sequentially by numbered lab rolls of camera negative into four half-hour parts. It operates around the conventions of home movies: the images are of my own life and in classic home-movie tradition the alternating subjects of family, friends, and travel are set by the filmstrip with absolute chronological certainty. Subjects repeat in cycles while others form internal episodes. But as home-movie
impulses dictate, the central subject is my child. Among the stops referred to in the title, one was the act of assigning an end within the accumulating mass of my personal archive - so that a film could be possibly shaped. Many converging threads of ends and transformations were candidates, but most evident was the quintessential end of nearly all home-movie cycles: the awkward end of my child's prepubescence - in this case hinging on a heroically decisive transformation of gender expression." -Jeff Preiss Preceded by: WARREN SONBERT (1988, 3 min, Regular 8mm-to-2K digital, silent. Restored by Anthology Film Archives with support from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.)

SHOW & TELL: ANDREW BUSTI
Andrew Busti has been making handmade films in various forms since 1999. His work revolves around the idea of the subjective and the languages that evolve through experience and perception. He is the technical director for the Film Studies Program at University of Colorado in Boulder and teaches classes in Alternative Process and Alchemical Cinema. He works with artists, museums, and archives through the name Analogue Industries Ltd., facilitating new works, helping to preserve any work that may be of value, and always striving to support analog cinema in all its ongoing forms. He is a founding member of Process Reversal, a nonprofit artist-run analog film initiative that currently educates, informs, supports, and outfits artist-run film labs and communities around the globe. He is an integral part of the new media preservation program for Film Studies at the University of Colorado in Boulder. When not working long hours and helping others make films or trying to actually
make his own, he might be found cooking in his very small kitchen, incessantly smoking cigarettes, drinking scotch, and ruminating on all the lost hours that slip through his fingers…. He currently obsesses about the reclaiming and refining of silver from the photographic process .999 percent of his time. For his Show & Tell program, Busti will present three films from his in-progress project, 26 PULSE WROUGHT (film for rewinds), which will ultimately comprise nine parts, as well as selected earlier works, and at least one live performance! As if that's not enough, he has also curated a group program devoted primarily to films that have been created with the support of Process Reversal (as well as by filmmakers associated with the group). 26 PULSE WROUGHT (film for rewinds) A series of 9 films investigating subjective languages, languages of subjectivity, and interpretive modes through coded polyphonic articulate signals. A cinema of illumination and reflection. Screening
