"A symphony for the senses." Sense of Cinema

This ravishing program is an ode to the void, the stars in their courses, and the shifting earth below. New York avant-garde filmmaker and installation artist Jeanne Liotta is known for work -- both found and made -- that embraces the sensuousness of natural phenomena as much as the physical aspects of her chosen media. She is on hand for a selection of recent films and multiple projection pieces -- including the short Eclipse (2005, 3:30 min., 16mm), last seen at the Whitney Biennial. Using the otherworldly luminosity of Super 8 Kodachrome to great effect, this gem of a film beholds a lunar eclipse from a New York City rooftop.
