From Ecstasy to Rapture: 50 Years of the Other Spanish Cinema
February 19–21, 2010 at
Anthology Film Archives
, New York
Anthology is overjoyed to collaborate with the Center for Contemporary Culture of Barcelona (CCCB) and the Spanish State Society for Cultural Action Abroad (SEACEX) on this ambitious and truly exciting survey of Spanish experimental cinema, a sweeping selection encompassing work from the late 1950s to the present day. Each show features an aesthetically diverse selection of works that provide a deeper insight into the incredible, inimitable development of film art in Spain over the last half century. From Ecstasy to Rapture promises to unveil a hitherto little-known chapter in the history of avant-garde cinema.
Featured Works:
Featuring numerous films that are rarely shown even in Spain-many of them screening in newly created 35mm prints-the series features six revelatory programs organized according to theme and method rather than chronology.
