*Jonas Mekas 100!*
In 2022, the world and Lithuania celebrate the life and work of Jonas
Mekas, one of the country’s most prominent cultural figures of the 20th and
21st centuries and a global cultural phenomenon in his own right,
considered by many to be the “godfather of avant-garde cinema”.
Throughout his life, Mekas always emphasized and cherished his Lithuanian
roots. After fleeing the foreign occupation of his native land, he arrived
in New York City, in his own words “at exactly the right moment”, joining
thousands of others escaping the devastation wrought by destructive
ideologies and tyrannical regimes in Europe. One might say that Mekas left
one village, his native Semeniškiai in northern Lithuania, and immersed
himself in the life of another – the Village thriving in and around lower
Manhattan, and in its landmark publication, the Village Voice, helping to
shape American and global culture so profoundly in the latter half of the
20th century.
This centennial celebration, Jonas Mekas 100!, seeks to expand global
recognition of his work and encourage a deeper exploration of Mekas’
prolific contributions to cinema, film criticism, cultural organization,
and, in particular, his body of poems and prose, now published in
Lithuanian, French, German, English, Japanese, Hebrew, and many other
languages.
The centennial program features over 50 events in an expanding list of
countries, including: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,
Israel, Italy, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan,
Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The vast scope of
Mekas’ contribution to global cultural is examined through film screenings
and retrospectives, exhibitions, readings, workshops, new publications and
translations of Mekas’ writings, and concerts celebrating the spirit of his
work, among other events.
The centennial program is a joint international collaboration between
leading art and cinema organisations, curators, publishers, the global
network of Lithuanian cultural attachés, the Estate of Jonas Mekas, and the
Lithuanian Culture Institute.

*REFRESH: *CYANOBACTERIA OFFER PERSPECTIVE ON OURSELVES
This art-science collaboration looks at the microscopic ways cyanobacteria
move, on an individual level and in colonies. If we study these organisms
and their varied forms, we might discover ways to improve our future.
On display at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science in the Summit Stage and
Expedition Health, March 2022 - Fall 2022
The cells in your body take in oxygen and sweep out waste products like
carbon dioxide (CO2). Microscopic cyanobacteria use photosynthesis to work
in reverse, breathing in CO2 and pumping out oxygen.
Three billion years ago, cyanobacteria created Earth’s oxygenfilled
atmosphere, supporting the evolution of creatures like us. Today, they
provide one-quarter of the planet’s oxygen, and cyanobacteria like
spirulina provide us with food.
Researchers believe that cyanobacteria —which need only sunlight, CO2, and
water to thrive— could offer solutions to our changing climate. They might
help reduce CO2 on a grand scale, contribute to biofuel production, and
support long-term space travel. This diverse group of organisms offers a
symbolic warning as well: when colonies of cyanobacteria become too dense
or stressed, they can run out of nutrients or be destroyed by their own air
pollution.
Made with the collaborative efforts of filmmaker Erin Espelie and the
Jeffrey Cameron Laboratory at the University of Colorado Boulder, which
created a customized microscope system specifically tailored for long-term
growth and quantitative imaging of cyanobacterial cells; with special
thanks to microbiologist and cinematographer Evan Johnson and artists Nima
Bahrehmand, Travis Austin, Will Alstetter, as well as NEST Studio for the
Arts.

*The New England Triennial*
The New England Triennial 2022 recognizes the vitality of contemporary art
across the Northeast amid the recent years of upheaval and transformation.
Spanning two museum venues—deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum and
Fruitlands Museum—this year’s iteration features artwork by twenty-five
artists from Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode
Island, and Vermont.
Prioritizing change over stability, many of the artists’ practices involve
processes of unmaking and remaking—patching things together, dissecting,
and rebuilding forms using discarded parts. Their collective artistry
reveals interconnected tendencies: a focus on kinship and ancestral
lineages; a search for one’s place in the world; the visualization of data;
themes of ruin and decay, and processes of alchemical transmutation.
Artists in this exhibition grapple with difficult and unjust moments of
history and contemporary life. Some employ generations-old creative
traditions in poetic, passionate, and informed ways. Altogether, their work
unearths hidden energies and stories surfacing at a time defined by change
and resilience.
Since 1989, the New England Triennial (formerly known as the deCordova New
England Biennial) has been a mainstay of deCordova’s programming and
mission, exemplifying the museum’s commitment to contemporary art of the
Northeast region. For the first time, this upcoming cycle will span two
museum venues, deCordova and Fruitlands, expanding the platform for this
highly-anticipated survey of art making in New England. We hope you will
visit both locations to appreciate the exhibition’s full scope.

*I AM HERE: HOME MOVIES AND EVERYDAY MASTERPIECES*
>From the earliest cave paintings to TikTok, humans have found creative ways
to document their day-to-day lives. *I AM HERE: Home Movies and Everyday
Masterpieces*, a major new AGO exhibition opening in April of 2022, is a
revealing look at our universal need to capture, share and cherish the
everyday. Featuring lost-and-found home movies from the Prelinger Archives,
alongside celebrated artworks by the likes of David Hockney, Patti Smith,
Claes Oldenburg, Annie Pootoogook, Arthur Jafa and Mary Pratt, as well as
snapshots, photo albums, letters, television, grocery lists, and social
media, *I AM HERE* brings together a broad range of personal records from
different time periods and locales to explore the shared human impulse to
document life as it happens.
Co-curated by Jim Shedden, the AGO’s Manager of Publishing, and Alexa
Greist, AGO Associate Curator and R. Fraser Elliott Chair, Prints &
Drawings, in collaboration with archivist, scholar and writer Rick
Prelinger, the exhibition is a celebration of daily life and human
creativity, replete with music and creative prompts. Among the artworks on
display will be a digital collage of the more than 3000 submissions
received from around the world as part of the AGO’s 2021 Portraits of
Resilience exhibition. The exhibition will be accompanied by a catalogue
co-published by the AGO and DelMonico Books/D.A.P

Light Cone

Wednesday to Saturday, 2pm - 7pm, GMT+2,
10, rue André Antoine, Paris
*Scrapbook Exhibition*
2022 marks an important moment for Light Cone: its 40th anniversary. Such
an event should be celebrated in the best possible way. Light Cone has come
together thanks to the filmmakers whose films entered the collection over
the years. We’ve decided to invite them to participate in an editorial
project, a book in which we would publish their contributions: letters,
postcards, photographs, drawings, film stills, collages, etc., which they
have sent us for the occasion of the anniversary. A collective scrapbook in
which the materiality of the objects – paper, photos, colors, handwritten
notes – evokes that of analog cinema, which we have always defended. A book
of images is born, and through the creation of this micro-collection, so is
a portable museum of about one hundred pieces, which are ready to be
exhibited and which will remain in the care of Light Cone’s archive.

*Attention Line Cinema Series: The Films of Craig Baldwin*
As part of *Attention Line*, Artists Space presents a retrospective of
films by Craig Baldwin in our downstairs cinema.
Shocking revelations, covert histories, unidentified flying objects,
copyright infringement, the very fate of humanity…all this and more, much
more, can be discovered in this retrospective of maverick filmmaker Craig
Baldwin. A master of found footage storytelling, Baldwin’s dynamic short
and feature length epics are rapid fire quasi-fiction essays on topics real
and utterly unbelievable. Baldwin is one of the premiere experimental
filmmakers of his or any generation, and these screenings definitively
prove that he is as deadly serious as he is deeply funny.

*IMAGELESS FILMS, PART 3*
If there’s one central element that would seem to be intrinsic and
indispensable to any reasonable definition of the cinema it would be the
presence of imagery, whether photographed, animated, or generated through
more experimental methods such as hand-painting, scratching, collaging, and
so on. Nevertheless, throughout the history of the medium, artists have
challenged even this seemingly core tenet of the art form by producing
works that subvert or entirely dispense with the image, by expanding the
definition of the kinds of experience that can be shared within the space
of the cinema, or by provocatively defining as “cinema” performances that
might seem a thing apart.
These subversions of the idea of a medium of “moving images” have taken
many forms: works that emphasize spoken dialogue or sound collages; films
whose visual tracks consist primarily of written text; projector
performances that showcase or manipulate light and darkness; flicker films;
pure color studies; films that punctuate long stretches of darkness with
near-subliminal bursts of imagery; and so on and so forth.
This ongoing series represents an extended, in-depth, and multi-chapter
exploration of the various ways that filmmakers and artists have
experimented with the possibilities of an “imageless” cinema (or have
played with the idea of “emptiness” or visual subtraction in a more general
sense). The series began in April, and continues throughout the summer with
films by Lawrence Andrews, Bradley Eros, Takahiko Iimura, Andrew Lampert,
Louise Lawler, Malcolm Le Grice, Maurice Lemaître, Luther Price, Paul
Sharits, and many others.
In addition, Microscope Gallery will participate by presenting a number of
expanded cinema works or pieces that are specially designed for a gallery
space; for more info visit: https://microscopegallery.com/
Programmed by Jed Rapfogel, in collaboration with Bradley Eros and John
Klacsmann. Special thanks to Elle Burchill & Andrea Monti (Microscope
Gallery); Lawrence Andrews; Rebecca Cleman, Tyler Maxin, and Karl McCool
(Electronic Arts Intermix); Jeanne Cousseau; Tim Haines; Andrew Lampert;

*Fast Forward + Rewind*
Initiated in 2014, the Winnipeg-based Mujer Artista – a multi-year art
project – emerged from the idea that community-based processes could have a
transformative effect on art practice, especially for demographics that
have historically excluded from access to institutional development
systems. Eight years later, Fast Forward and Rewind: Conversations on Place
and Space in Art, will reflect on the impact of Mujer Artista and the
environment from which it emerged and that surrounds it.

*THE ACTOR IN HIS LABYRINTH screening + talkback*
SETH FEIN's documentary maps Sebastián Ospina’s journey from Colombian TV
star to "nomadic" New York City theater actor. It observes how Ospina's
travels and travails in NYC today resonate with those of Simón Bolívar in
the play the actor wrote and performs about the South American Liberator’s
final journey, two centuries ago in Colombia. It connects the charismatic
actor's life to those of of Bolívar (whom Ospina's ancestors tried to
assassinate) and noted filmmaker Luis Ospina (Sebastián's late brother) as
it toggles between the artist's past and present in NYC, where an encounter
with Al Pacino in the 1970s changed the thespian's life and where he stages
his Bolívar play in the heart of Colombian NYC – Jackson Heights-Elmhurst –
today. Ospina joins Fein for the post screening talkback/Q&A.

*Actual/Virtual Realities: Harun Farocki’s Parallel & Related Visions*
In his groundbreaking four-part work *Parallel* (2012-14), Harun Farocki
explores the realm of video game design, particularly in its conception and
creation of virtual worlds. With his characteristically probing,
philosophical perspective, Farocki reveals and ponders the myriad ways in
which these designed environments connect to or depart from our own
individual and collective understanding of the actual world we inhabit.
Through Farocki’s lens, video game design, as a practice of digital
cosmogony, reveals itself as both a tool of the imagination and,
inevitably, a mirror of our own self-awareness and self-image, defined as
much by limits as it is by liberation.
This program will feature all four parts of Farocki’s masterful essay work,
each section paired with a film by a contemporary artist which explores
similar themes in a variety of ways, with an emphasis on the spatialization
of collective/personal memory and emotional world-building. Employing
varying technologies to approach their subject matter, these films will
uncover fresh points of resonance with Farocki’s illuminating ideas, which
still carry an ever-relevant visionary insight. (Mark Toscano)

*Optical Poetry | Oskar Fischinger Retrospective*
Explore a curated selection of short films by Oskar Fischinger – creator of
*Raumlichtkunst* (1926–2012) featured in *The Story of the Moving Image*
exhibition – revealing how experimentation with form and physical media
have always been a part of cinema history.
Oskar Fischinger (1900–67) was a pioneer of abstract animation and visual
music. Working in Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin and Los Angeles, he is known as
the Father of Visual Music and the Grandfather of Motion Graphics.
Fischinger made some of the first music videos in the early 1930s, and
influenced John Cage’s theories of percussion and the style of Disney’s
Fantasia (1940). He has influenced generations of animators and filmmakers
and continues to do so today. This is the new HD digital version of CVM’s
Retrospective programme featuring his classic visual music films, many from
restored 35mm prints. The films include some of his ground-breaking 1930s
Studies series synchronizing animation and music, which screened in
first-run theatres worldwide.
Fischinger made commercials in his Berlin animation studio, and the Muratti
cigarette commercial made him famous worldwide. Paramount Studios brought
him to Los Angeles in 1936, where he had several unsuccessful encounters
with Hollywood studios. In his later years he could not find support for
his films and focused on painting, drawing and a light-play instrument. –

*Images of the World and the Inscription of War*
In person: Jay Cassidy.
A visionary work of essay filmmaking, Images of the World and the
Inscription of War is a defining and revelatory cinematic investigation by
one of the medium’s most inspiring practitioners, Harun Farocki
(1944–2014). As the film unfolds with increasing complexity and insight,
Farocki spins his initial point of inquiry—the phenomenon of uninterpreted
“blind spots” in Allied aerial photographs during World War II—into a much
larger consideration of the interdependent relationship between war and
photography. Far from representing true factual evidence, photographic
records are often both a reflection of and an influence on the biases and
identities of those behind and in front of the camera. In wartime, these
deviations from objectivity can have powerful and far-reaching
consequences, and Farocki explores his thesis with nuance, clarity, and
poetic humanity in this riveting classic.
We are pleased to present Farocki’s masterpiece in a recent digital
restoration by the Harun Farocki Institute produced from the original 16mm
film elements. Preceding the film will be Academy Award–nominated film
editor Jay Cassidy’s chilling short protest film, The Best of May, 1968
(1972), in which liberated US bombing footage and home movies filmed in
Vietnam were appropriated by the filmmaker to confront audiences with a
photographic record of the war that was otherwise kept hidden.

*NAM JUNE PAIK’S RADICAL FUN*
Since the early 1960s, Nam June Paik’s prescient thinking about how artists
can exploit television and computer technology has resonated through the
generations, particularly with regard to his mischievous opposition to
industry conformity. His deep belief in the radical potential of fun, and
his understanding of technological innovation as nurturing artistic
innovation, have remained relevant through profound changes in
communication platforms. This program – a co-presentation by Electronic
Arts Intermix (EAI) and Gagosian – brings together a selection of Paik’s
analog videos with Internet-era works by artists engaging the same spirit,
highlighting their shared strategy of playfully deploying commercial
technologies to produce their own experimental work.
This screening is presented on the occasion of Art in Process, a two-part

*EC: KENNETH ANGER, PROGRAM 1*
“Scandal, evil, violence, and Fascism, like Hollywood, are centers of
fascination for Anger, and his films are the fields in which the dialectic
of that fascination is played and fought.” –P. Adams Sitney, VISIONARY FILM
“All of [Anger’s] films have been evocations or invocations, attempting to
conjure primal forces which, once visually released, are designed to have
the effect of ‘casting a spell’ on the audience. […] Not a surrealist who
puts blind faith in his own dream images and trusts his dreams to convey an
‘uncommon unconscious,’ Anger works predominantly in archetypal symbol. As
the magus, he is the juggler of these symbols, just as in the Tarot, where
the Magician is represented by the Juggler and is given the attribution of
Mercury, the messenger.” –Carel Rowe, FILM QUARTERLY
*FIREWORKS* (1947, 15 min, 16mm-to-35mm, b&w. Preserved by the UCLA Film &
Television Archive, with funding from the Film Foundation.)

*RABBIT’S MOON* (1950-70, 15 min, 35mm. Preserved by the UCLA Film &
Television Archive, with funding from the Film Foundation.)
*EAUX D’ARTIFICE* (1953, 13 min, 16mm)

*EC: KENNETH ANGER, PROGRAM 2*
“Anger’s myths address mass-erotic-consciousness through a barrage of
notorious symbols. These often war with one another in Reichian power-trips
of rape, will-power, fascism, and revolution. ‘I find ridiculous the idea
of anyone being the leader,’ Anger has said. Pentagrams war with swastikas
in *INVOCATION OF MY DEMON BROTHER*. Brando tortures Christ in *SCORPIO*,
Shiva asserts absolute power over his guests in *PLEASURE DOME*. Historical
heroes are reduced to pop-idols and history is demythified by comic book
codes. ‘When earths collide, gods die.’” –Carel Rowe, FILM QUARTERLY

*MASS FOR THE DAKOTA SIOUX* (1963-64, 20 minutes, 16mm, b&w)
*QUIXOTE* (1964-65, 45 minutes, 16mm)
“In *MASS* and *QUIXOTE* [Baillie] subtly blends glimpses of the heroic
personae with despairing reflections on violence and ecological disaster.
[…] Despite his sophistication, Baillie remains an innocent; the whole of
his cinema exhibits an alternation between two irreconcilable themes: the
sheer beauty of the phenomenal world (few films are as graceful to the eye
as his, few are as sure of their colors) and the utter despair of forgotten
men. It is in QUIXOTE alone that these two themes emerge into a dialectical
form, an antithesis of grace and disgrace.” –P. Adams Sitney, VISIONARY FILM
Total running time: ca. 70 min.
