SOUND OF MY SOUL: WOJCIECH BĄKOWSKI
SPOKEN MOVIES AND OTHER ANIMATIONS
As a part of the National Gallery of Art Film Programs
With Wojciech Bąkowski in person
A mixed program of animation and video collage includes recent segments from Bąkowski’s Spoken Movies series, “featuring his explorations of liaisons between animation and the spoken word as well as experiments with combining the two. In each of the films, the artist shifts [focus] to different elements, uses different formal solutions, and puts language to the test by exploring the boundaries of communicativeness” - Filmoteka Narodowa. Also included are Dry Standpipe, Worsening of Eyesight, and Exercises for True Friends, among other works.
Total running time approximately 75 minutes.
Saturday, April 4, 2:30 p.m.
