Restricted: Not for research use. 520 Sexual meditations is a series of short experimental films made by Stan Brakhage in 1972. "Office suite: This film evolves from several years' observation of the sexual energy which charges the world of business and the qualities of palatial environ which this energy creates. It is one of the most perfect films that has been given to me to make. Faun's room, Yale: This, the third of the Sexual Meditation Series, might also be seen as a triangular portrait of Julia and P. Adams Sitney and Jane Brakhage. Open field: This film takes all the masturbatory themese of previous 'Sexual Meditations' back to the source in pre-adolescent dreams. Open field is in the mind, of course, and exists as a weave of trees, grasses, waters and bodies poised and fleeting at childhood's end. The scene is lit as by sun and moon alike and haunted by the pursuant adult. Room with a view: Directly in the tradition of Sexual Meditation #1: Motel, this "sequel" does explore further possibilities of nudes in a room. Hotel: This film takes its cue from that ultimate situation of Sex/Med/masturbation - the loft-and-lonely hotel room. It is thus easily twice the length and complexity of any other in the series"-- Canyon Cinema film/video catalog 7, 1992. 590 PFA 1608-01-4233. |aCONDITION NOTE: Last inspected: 2006/ 12/04; Very good condition; color has faded to red/purple 655 7 Shorts.|2mim 655 7 Personal/independent works.|2mim 700 1 Brakhage, Stan. 710 2 Canyon Cinema. 935 GLADN50871559 946 PFA 1608-01-4233.
