An SFAI alum and educator, Al Wong has explored the bounds of the moving image across his career — experimenting with form, technique, and process — and the nature of the viewing experience. This screening will present Wong’s rarely seen 16mm expanded cinema work Screen, Projector and Film (1977), which foregrounds the nature of viewing and transitions the experience into the work’s primary concern. This piece is paired with a theatrical screening of Wong’s Twin Peaks (1977), currently on view in SFMOMA’s Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Atrium. Twin Peaks traces a slow drive around the San Francisco landmark at different times of day over the course of a year. The screenings will be followed by a conversation between Wong and Brett Kashmere, executive director of Canyon Cinema.
