Curated by 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 51���� Cinema Arts Archive. 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—representing 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.
