[Frameworks] Anthony McCall's films

[Jonathan Walley]

Hello Frameworkers,

I know you all have better things to do, but if anyone has 1) a spare moment or two, and 2) old print copies of Canyon Cinema or Filmmakers’ Co-op catalogs, I have a question.

Currently, only two of Anthony McCall’s solid light films are available for rental from Co-ops: Line Describing a Cone and Conical Solid (this includes Canyon, FMC, Light Cone, and LUX). I believe I recall that Cone of Variable Volume and Partial Cone were once available from at least some of these co-ops (not sure about Long Film for Four Projectors, but I’ll throw that into the mix, too). 

Can anyone confirm? This means going rather far back, as I assume that the availability of these films changed after “Into the Light” and McCall’s new cycle of solid light films, circa 2001/2/3.

Back when you could event rent a Yellow Movie, at least from FMC. Ah, the days before moving image art.

Thanks in advance for any info, ideas, suggestions.
All best,
Jonathan
