a.k.a. The New American Cinema Group. Est. 1961.
The largest archive and distributor of independent and avant-garde films in the world.
Join us for an in-person screening of Abstracting the Everyday: Works by the Women of The Film-Makers' Cooperative on Friday, March 4 at 7pm. Curated by Julia Curl.
Abstracting the Everyday highlights the vibrant personal visions of eight female members of the New York Film-Makers’ Cooperative. Departing from a realist, objective conception of the world, these artists implemented radical new techniques on film to plumb the depths of human consciousness. Sometimes ecstatic, sometimes haunting, the end result is a fascinating glimpse of the interior worlds of some of the most innovative experimental filmmakers of the 20th century.
