Description
A masterpiece of structural cinema, Print Generation consists of a single minute of 16mm footage (sixty one-second shots) that has been printed and re-printed 50 times. An exceedingly rare kind of avant-garde film that manages to be at once formally visionary and profoundly moving, Print Generation will be preceded by another landmark of structural cinema, Michael Snow’s Wavelength (1967). Professor of Film at UW Madison, J.J. Murphy will be on hand for a post-screening discussion.
