Perspectives 178: CINEPLEX
About
Perspectives 178: CINEPLEX transforms CAMH’s Zilkha Gallery into a unique cinémathèque space for a celebration of the expansive nature of moving image media and the power of montage. CINEPLEX explores the landscape of cinematic experience through various artists’ reflections on, responses to, and transformations of movie culture. Unfolding over the course of twelve weeks of projections, screenings, and events, the exhibition features a variety of experimental works, essay films, documentaries, and live cinema events that appropriate and creatively transform existing movie material. In addition to weekly Thursday evening screenings and events throughout the run of the exhibition, many projected works will be on view during regular museum hours in installation format as well.
Organizers
Perspectives 178 : CINEPLEX is organized by Peter Lucas, CAMH Education Associate.
