The Film Co-op Presents: Andy Warhol's Screen Tests In Context

'In Collaboration with The Film-Makers' Cooperative (FMC) we are proud to present a program of works on 16mm primarily made in New York City during the mid-‘60s. Many of the artists and filmmakers behind the films were involved in the Factory andWarhol scene directly or inspired by those within it. The films give a window into Warhol's world but also illustrate some of the key Expanded Cinema concerns that anchor the current presentation of Warhol's Screen Tests at the Gallery. The screening will be introduced by The FMC's Executive Director Tom Day, who will offer a brief introduction to Warhol's filmmaking.

The screening will be followed by a live performance by Isaiah Barr with visuals by Jamie Nares.
