Obvious Dimensions
June 23-28, 2009 at
Light Industry
, New York
"Provided a filmmaker is ingenious and creative enough, the marvelous can take place in an ordinary-sized room or a small studio set of obvious dimensions." - Parker Tyler, Underground Film: A Critical History (1969)
Light Industry is one of over thirty participants in No Soul For Sale, a week-long exhibition at X Initiative's No Soul for Sale that will bring together an international roster of nonprofits, collectives, and other alternative spaces, each sharing a portion of the venue's galleries.
Our contribution will be Obvious Dimensions, a breathless, marathon series of screenings, performances, and lectures. Conceived in the spirit of Light Industry's weekly events, the project will bring together the worlds of contemporary art, experimental cinema, new media, documentary film, and the academy, creating an environment in which to consider new models for the presentation of time-based media and rethink the possibilities of the cinema as a social space.
