Dreamlands: Immersive Cinema and Art, 1905–2016

As part of the Dreamlands film series, Morgan Fisher’s film screens in Optical Space, a program that brings together works by the Abstract Film movement working in Berlin in the 1920s, whose abstract forms, made using cardboard, dyes, paint on glass, and paper, were animated into optical metaphors of the rhythm, meter and tone of music. The second group of works presents abstract experiments with the screen by artists who emerged in the latter half of the century, in works that shift our vision outwards from the screen into the space of the cinema and the outside world. 

The screening takes place on November 19, 2016. Learn more.
