THE MAGIC OF CINEMA: THE FILMS OF DOMINIC ANGERAME
SUNDAY, JUNE 7 – 5PM. (This event is $10)
This program celebrates the recent work of Dominic Angerame, a prolific, award-winning filmmaker, educator, programmer, cinephile and former Executive Director of Canyon Cinema. Known for his broad interests, inventiveness, keen observations of social realities and genuine passion for experimental filmmaking, Angerame has made over sixty films that have received critical acclaim and worldwide recognition. With the career spanning over fifty years, Angerame has produced a vast and remarkably diverse body of work, from his monumental city symphony series, travelogs and landscape films to highly personal diaries, portraits, found footage films and comedy shorts. Angerame’s films are magical: a powerful marriage of image, sound, movement and technique, they are both realist and surrealist, documentary and poetic, strange and familiar, concrete and ephemeral, dark and illuminating. Angerame has taught film production and cinema studies at several leading universities and art schools, educating future generations of artists, scholars, critics and curators. From 1980 to 2012, he served as Executive Director of Canyon Cinema. Under his visionary leadership, Canyon Cinema has become one of the largest distributors of avant-garde and artist-made films. Angerame will join us at Spectacle to present his films.
