M-F 10am-6pm, ET
534 W 26th Street
*The Decay of Fiction by Pat O'Neill*
Mitchell-Innes & Nash is pleased to present *The Decay of Fiction* by Pat
O’Neill, the Los Angeles-based artist and experimental filmmaker, whose
work has been represented by the gallery since 2015. O’Neill has
transformed his 2002 film of the same title into a five-channel
installation, digitally scanning and recombining individual sections into a
distinct, new work. Premiering in 2018, this will be the first showing in
New York.
For the five-channel presentation, O’Neill has rearranged the film into
distinct components across which settings and actors recur alongside
special effects such as animations and split screens. Set to an unremitting
soundscape of moving traffic and birds, they offer an almost hallucinogenic
amalgamation of now and then, and real and imagined. Their simultaneous
unfolding offers further permutations of the composite imagery, eliminating
for good any possibility of a linear narrative.
A portrait of an architectural site facing imminent demolition, the
multichannel installation embodies a hybrid genre where history and
artifice coexist. Through its layered approach to documentation and
collective memory, *The Decay of Fiction* honors the Ambassador Hotel as
its own purveyor of fictions: a site for the production of illusions that,
as O’Neill notes, “sometimes provided [people] with respite from their real
lives, allowed fantasies to be developed and nurtured, and taught lessons
about how to be human.”

*Fabric of Photography: Material Matters*
Twelve experimental photographic artists exhibit their work in Oxford as
part of Photo Oxford Festival opening in the Main Gallery, The Old Fire
Station, central Oxford, from the 15th of October until 13th of November.
Each artist focuses on materiality within their practice. They are inspired
by historical processes invented in the 19th Century, and work with the
fundamental elements of the photographic medium: Light, Time and Material.
The exhibition brings together artists from Australia, France, Holland,
Poland, Ukraine, the United States, and the United Kingdom. The artists
explore the materiality of the photograph through experimentation.

various times, various locations
*Lausanne Underground Film & Music Festival*
LUFF is like a weed. No matter how hard you try to get rid of it, it keeps
coming back. It has been every October for twenty years. A bastard species.
Doubly crossbred, both in form and in substance: a festival of cinema and
music, an established and authorized institution that showcases recent
creative work and artists that navigate under the radars, official or
commercial, be it intentionally or not. As time goes by, we understand that
this hybridity and its paradoxes offer potential for resistance and
adaptation. Like a weed, LUFF is the product of multiple crossbreedings. It
mocks all notions of purity, and is ever persistant.
It is often said that LUFF represents an elitist culture, reserved only for
some. Yet it is an instrument - amongst others - of resistance against all
attempts to eliminate our differences. A tool several generations of
volunteers and staff have used to promote an awareness of different ways to
live, love, and coexist in spite of our diverging viewpoints. This rhetoric
seems almost obvious today, as neo-liberal violence, careless
discrimination and rejection keep blowing up in our faces at every instant
of our lives, governed as they are by bio-political frameworks.
To this blatant fact, LUFF retorts that when we speak of an “outcry”, we
are not talking in metaphors. We speak of human and non-human screams that
pierce the physical and psychological barriers of our docile and eager
bodies. To amplify and to project this shout from across the world, from
inside and outside the Casino de Montbenon, is to turn our eyes and ears to
what has been repressed. It is opening the storm drain of our unconscious,
it’s taking in a good whiff of the colon that is inside all of us. These
cries, Lydia Lunch has been making them heard for 40 years. Her friend and
director Beth B created a film about her that both artists will come to
present at LUFF: The Was is Never Over. A title that could very well give
its name to the 20th edition of LUFF.

Kunsthaus ACUD - Veteranenstrasse 21, Berlin Mitte
*FRACTO Experimental Film Encounter - 5th Edition*
FRACTO Experimental Film Encounter announces its fifth edition and invites
Berlin audiences to immerse themselves in 4 days of film screenings, talks
and performances, taking place between the 21st and the 24th of October
2021 at Kunsthaus ACUD, in Berlin Mitte.
The underlying theme of the 2021 edition is Appropriation, where we explore
how our contemporary realities and their environment are lensed,
configured, contextualised and re-contextualised. The Selection for 2021
comprises nearly 30 films curated in 5 programmes which reflect the diverse
terrain of contemporary filmmaking practices associated with Experimental
film.
The upcoming line up includes artists Alexandra Cuesta, Blanca García,
Bruno Delgado Ramo, Charlotte Pryce, Clara Pistner, Collectif Rébenty
(Carole Thibaud), Daniel A. Swarthnas, Deborah S. Phillips, Distruktur
(Melissa Dullius & Gustavo Jahn), Doplgenger, Erica Sheu, Eva Giolo, James
Edmonds, Jorge Suárez-Quiñones Rivas, Josef Graßl, Lena Ditte Nissen, Mika
Taanila, Nicky Hamlyn, Pablo Marin, Pablo Mazzolo, Philipp Fleischmann,
Ralitsa Doncheva, Rebecca Jane Arthur, Ross Meckfessel, Ryan Marino, Ute
Aurand, Vicky Smith, Yan Wai Yin, Zachary Epcar. The special programme
focuses on the Austrian avant-garde filmmaker Peter Tscherkassky in
conversation with curator and historian Federico Rossin, around the idea of
Found Footage as a peculiar film technique to explore media imagery as a
resource to be raided and reused. Fracto presents it in a 2-night all
analog programme. In addition, the Finnish artist and curator Kari
Yli-Annala, presents Scorched Ground - Appropriation and Found Footage in
Finnish Artists’ Moving Images, a compilation where the original materials
have been given a new life, and the use of technology by humans as well as
the scars or scorched marks of history are paid special attention. The
programme includes works by Miia Rinne, Mika Taanila, Seppo Renvall, Sami
van Ingen, Saara Ekström, Elina Oikari, Juha van Ingen and Jarkko Räsänen.
Q&As will be held with attending filmmakers Mika Taanila, Seppo Renvall,
Saara Ekström and Sami van Ingen. The digital project textîles – threading
speculative archipelagoes makes landfall at FRACTO 2021 as a performative
space where facts and fictions about textile artifacts and practices can be
reclaimed from an archipelago of alternate worlds and spun anew. Finally,
the Labor Berlin Workshop The Banal Image Re-envisioned Appropriating Home
Movies, held by members Maja Milic and Christin Turner, aims to create a
collaborative film assembled from fragments, in which each participant
projects their personal memories onto found images of the collective. This
process utilizes analogue editing of super8 film material using the tools
of projectors, viewers, and splicers.
The 2021 edition of FRACTO is funded by Frame Contemporary Art Finland,
AVEK, TAIKE Arts Promotion Center Finland, the Finnland-Institut in
Deutschland and the Österreichisches Kulturforum Berlin, in cooperation
with ACUD, Lightcone, LaborBerlin and Occulto.

*THE TWO SIGHTS (AN DÀ SHEALLADH), by Joshua Bonnetta*
The first solo feature from Joshua Bonnetta, THE TWO SIGHTS (AN DÀ
SHEALLADH) explores the disappearing tradition of second sight in the Outer
Hebrides of Scotland. Devoting the soundtrack to locals’ accounts of
haunting experiences – phantom horses, ghost voices, and other supernatural
phenomena – Bonnetta connects their testimonies with striking 16mm images
and a carefully-curated sonic montage of the physical and aural environment
of these enchanted islands. THE TWO SIGHTS is an ethnographic marvel of
non-fiction filmmaking that thrills the eyes and ears and invites us into
the extra-sensory beyond.
Fri-Thurs, Oct 22-28 at 6:45 & 9:00 nightly. Additional screenings on Sat
Oct 23 & Sun Oct 24 at 4:30.
Immediately following the week-long engagement of THE TWO SIGHTS, Anthology
will present the series “Folk Horror” (Oct 28-Nov 11). That program will
highlight a subgenre of horror films that could almost be kissing cousins
of THE TWO SIGHTS, which evokes some of the same atmosphere in a
nonfictional context.

*Me, Between Somewhere and Nowhere: Women Animation Artists from Japan*
The commercial film sector in Japan is predominantly male-dominated.
According to Asahi Newspapers, only three percent of film productions by
major companies are directed by women. However, a quick look at the
independent sector, especially in the field of short animated films,
reveals a very different picture. Beginning in the late 2000s and
especially in the 2010s, a new generation of women animation filmmakers has
boomed. This strong trend in contemporary Japanese film culture is
surprisingly neglected by the main cultural discourse. Without a doubt,
there is a problem with a system that excludes young, interesting, talented
artists creating such smart, energetic, and original works. This selection
brings together an eclectic mix of films by young female animation artists
using a diverse array of techniques to question gender roles and the image
of the female body in Japanese society.

*IN SITU : Erin Weisgerber & Richard Kerr*
As part of the screening series IN SITU, la lumière collective in
collaboration with Double Negative Collective presents : ERIN WEISGERBER &
RICHARD KERR
Richard Kerr's reflection on his travels and the materiality of his
photographs with Erin Weisgerber's abstracted portraits of people and
places dear to her, together reveal two different sides of the poetic essay
and embodied cinema. Jeremy Young's improvisational and compositional
techniques are influenced by Cagean aleatoricism as well as haptics-based
praxis and deep listening.

*DISJOINTED GAZES*
*Third program in Scratch Collection programmed by Vivian Ostrosky. *
This program consists of an ensemble of films that share the specificity of
having a narrative construction. In the first, the disjointed gaze of the
filmmaker's reflection in the common household objects she uses allows the
character to keep her mystery; in the others, stories are attributed to
actors. Playing with found, borrowed, or filmed images – real or fabricated
– a fake/true story is told. Trustworthy biographies are presented as
beyond belief, while others, resembling fiction, are shown as plausible
ones.

*Karrabing Film Collective*
“*The Jealous **One* mixes mythology
with contemporary improvisational realism to stunning effect, their
uniquely inventive cinematic language further cementing
their grassroots activism and selfrepresentation on the global
stage…”—Melbourne International Film Festival
The Karrabing Film Collective, an Indigenous media group based in
Australia’s Northern Territories, uses the creation of film and art
installations as a form of Indigenous grassroots resistance and
self-organization. The collective opens a space beyond binaries of the
fictional and the documentary as well as the past and the present. Meaning
“low tide” in the Emmiyengal language, karrabing refers to a form of
collectivity outside of government-imposed strictures of clanship or land
ownership. Shot on handheld cameras and phones, most
of Karrabing’s films dramatize and satirize the daily scenarios and
obstacles that collective members face in their various interactions with
corporate and state entities. Composing webs of nonlinear narratives that
touch on cultural memory, place, and ancestry by freely jumping in time and
place, the Karrabing Film Collective exposes and intervenes into the
longstanding facets of colonial violence—such as environmental devastation,
land restrictions, and economic exploitation— that impact members directly.
REDCAT presents a comprehensive look at the Karrabing Film Collective’s
work, surveying its existing films to date throughout the Fall. Three
diverse programs scheduled for 09/22, 10/27, and 11/22

*Macha Colón: Perfume de Gardenias*
*“Colón’s gaze is as authentic as it is original as she dares to poke fun
at the sacred and profound in a deeply Catholic culture; humor that, in the
end, helps to broaden our understanding of death, mourning, and the meaning
of life itself.” —Blackfilm.com *
Perfume de Gardenias, the debut feature by queer Afro-Puerto Rican
multidisciplinary artist Macha Colón, comes to REDCAT after its world
premiere at the 2021 Tribeca Film Festival. Colón knits a whimsical tale of
motherly love and sisterhood tinted with black humor and sparkled with
lavish doses of Caribbean imagery. Isabel is a loving and witty elderly
widow with plenty of caring left to give. Soon after she decorates an
exuberant and very personal funeral for her late husband, she’s enlisted by
Toña—a power player in the neighborly gossip milieu—into producing
custom-made and one-of-akind funerals for the local parishioners of a
middle-class barrio in Puerto Rico. Perfume de Gardenias puts caregiving at
the center of the frame while picturing a candid take on the cycle of life
and death, the relevance of mourning rituals, and the importance of
companionship. This provocative reflection on death and mourning, featuring
veteran actress Luz María Rondón in her first moviestarring role, offers a
playful and darkly comic perspective on Puerto Rico.

*Mark McElhatten— “To The Lighthouse” Screening Series*
MoMA is honored to present a screening series selected by renowned curator
and film programmer Mark McElhatten. “I like to present programs that are
more than the sum of their parts,” he says, “an experience that can’t be
summarized made up of films that can’t be told.” A founding curator of the
New York Film Festival’s Views from the Avant-Garde, and Martin Scorsese’s
film archivist for 22 years, McElhatten has been curating film and video
programs at major museums and festivals around the world since 1976.
“Cinema exists before and after film as a modality of human consciousness,”
says McElhatten. “I’ve always resisted informational or thematic programs
as I work with intuition and with each film to compose an experience. The
films presented in this series touch on many ideas and issues: the human
subconscious, the daily, the sublime, race, colonialism, mortality, desire,
difference, and division. They are songs of experience holding surprises,
revealing their essence and versatility in context, not limited to carrying
a particular weight of explanation. Unexplained but not inexplicable. Films
that honor the viewer by acknowledging your freedom and intelligence.”
Highlights of the series will include world premieres of work by Nathaniel
Dorsky, David Gatten and Ashley West, Ernie Gehr, Vincent Grenier, Eve
Heller, Ken and Nisi Jacobs, Dani (Leventhal) ReStack and Sheliah (Wilson)
ReStack, and Leslie Thornton; US premieres from Michael Robinson; rare
screenings of films by Joseph Cornell and Jacques Rivette; and films by
Bruce Conner, Claire Denis, Mark LaPore, Buster Keaton, Gregory
Markopoulos, Talena Sanders, Phil Solomon, John Reinhardt, and more.

*Abraham Castillo Flores: The Pentagram of Mexican Cinema Horror Legends*
REDCAT welcomes film curator and historian Abraham Castillo Flores for a
one-of-a-kind live celebration at the threshold of Halloween and Día de
Muertos. Bursting with bristling film clips and unheard-of stories from the
cinematic beyond, this must-see psychotronic performative lecture will
invoke the legends of Mexican folklore that have manifested themselves
throughout the years in the country’s delirious cinema of fantasy and
horror: La Llorona, El Santo, La Momia, La Muerte, and El Diablo. These
mythical figures remain deeply ingrained in the Mexican collective psyche.
And through cycles of hibernation and euphoric popularity, they reflect the
paradoxical relationship between the reverence for and mockery of death and
the afterlife that Mexican culture is known for around the world.
