Howdy Frameworks! I am pleased to finally put this notice out to the hive mind - following in the tradition of many other great filmmakers, we are hitting the road to bring our films closer to you. I (Ryder) will be in attendance at all of these shows, so if you live nearby any of them and want to check them out, I would love to meet you.
Please see below or get in touch with me personally for more information. Best! R ----- Iris Film Collective is happy to announce a multi-destination travelling exhibition of new analog film work which will take place in October and November of 2015. The "End Of The World Tour" will present eight new films, all of which consist of hand-processed black and white 16mm film, as well as various other works by members of the collective. The films in the main program represent eight unique perspectives on the idea of the 'end of the world.' They also evoke the tenacity of life in an untenable environment, and together serve as a statement on the group's use of celluloid film despite the changing industrial landscape which enables the medium. From semi-narratives to poetic meditations on space to hard-wrought cameraless abstraction, the End Of The World is far more fruitful than its name suggests. The collective is composed of Vancouver, BC film artists Ariel Kirk-Gushowaty, Zoe Kirk-Gushowaty, Alex MacKenzie, Lisa g Nielsen, Sydney Southam, Michèle Simone Smith, Amanda Thomson, Ryder Thomas White, and John Woods. Since 2014, the group has been creating their own work, collaborating with community members, and hosting exhibitions of work by their colleagues from across the world. They are currently artists in residence for the City of Vancouver's Fieldhouse Residency Program, and are working out of their studio at Falaise Park until the end of 2017. The End Of The World Tour will take place on, in, and at: Oct. 6 - Seattle, WA - EXcinema / Grand Illusion Cinema Oct. 12 - Portland, OR - Northwest Film Center Oct. 15 (7:30pm) - Tucson, AZ - Exploded View Microcinema Oct. 18 - Albuquerque, NM - Basement Films / Graft Gallery Collective Nov. 14 - New Orleans, LA - The Front Nov. 19 (8:30pm) - Oakland, CA - Black Hole Cinematheque All shows at 7pm unless otherwise indicated.
