The exhibition features key historical and contemporary films from Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, Puerto Rico and the United States. From innovative works by Brazilian artist Helio Oiticica and Mexican photographer Manuel Alvarez Bravo to the breathtaking yet practically unknown ouevre of queer Ecuadorian filmmaker Eduardo Sola Franco, the exhibition takes both the aficionado and the open- minded viewer on a journey into a wealth of materials culled from the forgotten corners of Latin American film archives. Equally unprecedented in its approach and scope, the accompanying fully bilingual catalogue features major scholars and artists working across nationalities, mediums, and time periods. Lerner and Piazza assemble a mix of original content authored by key curators, scholars, and archivists from Latin America: eighteen essays and articles translated for the first time pertaining to the history of Latin American experimental film, historical image-documents that are fundamental to the history of experimental film in Latin America, and program notes from the exhibition's programs. Published in association with the Los Angeles Filmforum, and as part of the Getty's Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA. 546 Includes text in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. 650 0 Experimental films|zLatin America|vExhibitions. 650 0 Experimental films|zUnited States|vExhibitions. 650 7 Experimental films.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00918452 651 7 Latin America.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01245945 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 Exhibition catalogs.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01424028 700 1 Lerner, Jesse,|eeditor. 700 1 Piazza, Luciano,|eeditor. 710 2 Los Angeles Filmforum (Firm),|eissuing body. 710 2 Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA (Project),|eissuing body. 956 20171215|bnts 956 20180124|bpfmcq|cMC 957 OCLC xref loaded 20180204 994 C0|bZAP
