This event is presented in collaboration with the Studio 8 Film Festival. The filmmaker will be in attendance.
Join us for the closing event of the Studio 8 Film Festival — a tribute to legendary filmmaker Lawrence Jordan. This screening brings together a curated selection of Jordan’s visionary collage animations and surrealist shorts. The works, some rarely seen, span six decades and are rich with mythic resonance, surreal imagery, and a deeply poetic sense of motion and time.
Following the screening, Lawrence Jordan will be joined in conversation by V. Vale, publisher of RE/Search and a longtime champion of underground art and culture. This dialogue promises to provide unique insights into Jordan’s creative practice and his impact on generations of experimental filmmakers.
