Screentime at the Fine Arts Library: Here come the Videofreex
Twice a week throughout the month of April, the Fine Arts Library will host a series of informal screenings of experimental film and video art from the UVA Library collection.
On Tuesday, April 15 in its ground-floor video niche, the Fine Arts Library will screen the documentary Here Come the Videofreex (2015), with interviews and restored tapes from the radical film collective capturing their revolutionary use of film technology in the 1960s and 1970s
Drop in and out as your schedule allows to see selections from a century of art of the moving image.
Later this month, see two films from Brazilian-born contemporary artist and filmmaker Ana Vaz that trace hybrid histories of colonialism; and Shirin (2008), an exploration of gendered spectatorship from acclaimed Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami.
