13th Annual Views from the Avant-Garde
October 2 - 4, 2009


Curated by Mark McElhatten & Gavin Smith

The 13th edition of the New York Film Festival’s essential experimental film showcase features eleven programs screening in the Walter Reade Theater. A total of 60 works will be shown, including 14 world premieres, two rediscoveries, and 20 by artists being shown by Views for the first time. The series premieres with La Rabbia di Pasolini, a reconstruction of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s 1963 found-footage essay film Rage, includes a retrospective tribute to the late Chick Strand, and closes with a three-projector performance by Bruce McClure.

Explore the Views Microsite for complete descriptions of all the films in the programs.
