Thrilled to share this wonderufl-as-always trailer Zena made to give a little sense of our Fall 2024 season of Lightstruck at 2220 Arts + Archives!
We’re really excited about all of these shows, and some of our favorite artists are showcased here, including Betzy Bromberg, with whom we’re doing a three-program 16mm retrospective with her in person at all three shows! It’s a bit of an experiment, since we’d like to do more multi-show retrospectives of other artists in the future, and we’re hoping that the three-successive-Thursday structure works ok for as many people as possible. Jamming the shows into one weekend seemed a little too claustrophobic, and we worried the films wouldn’t get the proper space they deserve. Also, we liked the way that three Thursdays in a row gives it a sense of ritual and ceremony. We hope you can make it to one or all of them, as well as the other three shows in the season – the incisive, unexpected, hilarious, and provocative videos of Mexican artist Ximena Cuevas, two magical and otherworldly 3-D 16mm films by Zoe Beloff (complete with glasses and silver screen, as well as Zoe in person too!), and the unreal, vividly cinematic documentaries of Polish virtuoso Bogdan Dziworski. See you soon!
