Curated by MFA candidates from the Department of Film, Video, Animation and New Genres, these programs feature a unique opportunity to see some of the incredible 16mm prints from the UWM Cinema Arts Archive. The Cinema Arts Archive now contains over 400 essential works on 16mm film, and a handful on 35mm, from a range of historic and contemporary cinema. This unique and expansive archive continues to preserve, grow, and reflect the ever-evolving landscape of avant-garde film—representing a commitment to the past, present, and future of the medium. Alongside giants like Hollis Frampton, Bruce Baillie, Deborah Stratman, and Jennifer Reeves lie many lesser-known gems ready to ignite curiosity and expand minds.
A Brief History of Chasing Storms presents a history of the tornado as both a destructive weather event and an American icon. Local monuments to past tornadoes intertwine with mythologies of settlement and displacement. An amateur storm chaser questions his own agency and fate. The CEO of a Wizard of Oz-themed storm shelter company describes a growing market in a world of increasing weather uncertainty. Unfolding episodically, questions of memory, inequality, colonization, climate change, and disaster capitalism arise as the film examines legacies of weather within the region colloquially known as “tornado alley.”
The weather moves around as the clouds imagine their own nephology: wondering what these people see when they see what they see. Fluttering by, attention pulls focus from the movement of the cloud, to the movement of the wind, to the movement of the eye, to the movement of the mind, without ever moving an inch. All the while, we’re watching seeing, or observing looking, or something like that. A program of short works that explore place, space and the weather, in all its sublime, mundane and chaotic glory.
