!! The 2023 expanded cinema program is now live !! Join us for our finale on Sunday, April 2 at 9pm at @thelabsf featuring new 16mm preservation prints of Bill Brand’s Acts of Light trilogy (1972-1974). More info at lightfieldfilm.org. “ACTS OF LIGHT is a trilogy consisting of RATE OF CHANGE, ANGULAR MOMENTUM, and CIRCLES OF CONFUSION. Together they develop a study of pure color based on the notion that film is essentially change and not motion. The films build one on the other as first pure change, then relational change, and finally, irrational change. They can be seen together or as separate works.” - Bill Brand (@bill_brand) Part 1: Rate of Change 1972 | 18 minutes | USA | 16mm | color | silent Part 2: Angular Momentum 1973 | 20 minutes | USA | 16mm | color | sound Part 3: Circles of Confusion 1974 | 15 minutes | USA | 16mm | color | sound — Bill Brand is a multi-disciplinary artist whose films, public artwork, installations and works-on-paper have exhibited worldwide in museums, galleries microcinemas and on television. His 1980 Masstransiscope, an animated mural installed in the New York City subway, is in the MTA Arts and Design permanent collection. Bill Brand’s artwork has been featured at Museum of Modern Art, Whitney Museum, Smithsonian American Art Museum, National Gallery of Art, Anthology Film Archive and Shanghai Duolun Museum of Modern Art. He is represented by Galerie Arnaud Lefebvre, Paris. His films have been presented at major film festivals including the Berlin Film Festival, New Directors/ New Films Festival, Tribeca Film Festival and Rotterdam Film Festival. — IMAGES: Acts of Light - Part 1: Rate of Change (1972) Acts of Light - Part 2: Angular Momentum (1973) Acts of Light - Part 3: Circles of Confusion (1974) by @lightfieldfilm
