To kick off the semester, the Department of Film, Video, Animation and New Genres will be presenting a very special edition of it’s long-standing “From the Archives” series. This series presents selections from the department’s singular 16mm Cinema Arts Archive. This edition focuses on films from the archive made by faculty members past and present. Expect drama, documentary, experimentation, comedy, appropriation, and the unexpected.
Experimental Tuesdays is a free public series featuring celebrated work of contemporary and historical artist-made film and video. This weekly series presents films and artists that explore the creative and critical potential of moving images. It also amplifies marginalized voices by hosting artists that represent diverse populations, such as LGBT, Native American, Black and Latinx artists. Hosted by the Department of Film, Video, Animation & New Genres, and presented in partnership with UWM’s Union Cinema, this series is a bedrock of the Milwaukee arts landscape. Recent screenings include Silvia das Fadas, Courtney Stephens, Simon Liu, Helena Wittman, Jessica Bardsley, Suneil Sanzgiri, Mary Helena Clark, Angelo Madsen Minax, and Rhayne Vermette to name a few.
