Curated by MFA candidates from the Department of Film, Video, Animation and New Genres, these programs feature a unique opportunity to see some of the incredible 16mm prints from the 51ÁÔÆæ Cinema Arts Archive. For each program, the curator is invited to program a selection of films around a theme of their choosing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cinema Arts Archive now contains over 400 essential works on 16mm film, and a handful on 35mm, from a range of historic and contemporary cinema. This unique and expansive archive continues to preserve, grow, and reflect the ever-evolving landscape of avant-garde film\u2014representing a commitment to the past, present, and future of the medium. Alongside giants like Hollis Frampton, Bruce Baillie, Deborah Stratman, and Jennifer Reeves lie many lesser-known gems ready to ignite curiosity and expand minds. While the collection aims to capture an array of crucial cinematic history, modes, and movements, the majority of work is artist-made, short form, and experimental in nature.<\/p>\n\n\n
