An Evening with Bill Morrison. Discussion
For this Modern Mondays discussion, Bill Morrison focuses on his use of archival and found footage, tracing the ideas that surfaced in some of his earliest titles (Footprints [1992], The Film of Her [1996]) and continue in his most recent work (Light Is Calling [2004], All Vows [2013], Beyond Zero: 1914-1918 [2014]). The range and diversity of his manipulation of found footage reveals his profound use of film as a metaphor for reflections on the historical and existential nature of time. October 20, 7:00 p.m.
