Jan. 30 - THREE VIDEOS BY TAKAHIKO IIMURA at Anthology Film Archives

Legendary Japanese experimental filmmaker Takahiko Iimura will be at Anthology Film Archives on Friday presenting two of his classic films as well as a special “remix” of one of his works. Scott MacDonald praised Iimura’s work as being able “refresh our ability to perceive.” The works being screened are Self Identity (1972-74, revised 2008), Observer/Observed and Other Works of Video Semiology (1975-1978), and Seeing/Hearing/Speaking (2002), which Iimura described by asking the question, “Is there any difference phenomenologically between the utterance as it was read in the sentence and as recorded in the video?”

Showing Friday, January 30 at 7:30PM at Anthology Film Archives.
