Aline Cautis
Saturday Cinema is pleased to present two new films by Aline Cautis:
escape strategies 001 & escape strategies 003, 2011 looped, 01:11 & 01:05
Hand-painted on clear leader and found footage collected by Cautis during her Fulbright Fellowship in Romania, these two films playfully overwhelm photographic imagery with strobing patterns of saturated color and amorphous abstract shapes.
escape strategies will be screened on one loop in the second floor window of 1369 W. Chicago Avenue from 8pm - 10pm beginning this Saturday, February 19, and on the following dates:
February 26, March 12, March 19, March 26, April 2, April 9, April 16 & April 23.
