Flemington DIY film series features contemporary innovative artists

Posted

Flemington DIY, 26 Stangl Road, Flemington, N.J., presents “a series of important films from contemporary cinema’s most innovative artists.”

The series traces experiments in the landscape film. From the diaristic tendencies of New Queer Cinema’s graduate Jenni Olson and enfant terrible Caveh Zahedi to the quietly observational poeticism of Kevin Jerome Everson and Matt McCormick.

The films are as follows:

Jan. 28: “The Joy of Life” (2005) directed by Jenni Olson – Also showing: “575 Castro St.” and “Blue Diary” ;

Feb. 11: “Erie” (2010) directed by Kevin Jerome Everson – Also showing: “music from the edge of the allegheny plateau”;

March 4: “I Don’t Hate Las Vegas Anymore” (1994) directed by Caveh Zahedi;

March 25: “The Great Northwest” (2010) Directed by Matt McCormick – Also showing: “The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal.”

All screenings begin at 7:30 p.m. and are accompanied by a short film. Admission is free, but donations are welcome. This is the first batch of screenings at the new Flemington DIY, which opened last May. More information can be found at flemingtondiy.org/road-films.
