Film screening: Echoes in the Frame

Echoes in the Frame is a film program curated by the curatorial platform Culture Art Society (CAS) which shows a short selection of experimental films by Black women and non-binary moving image artists and filmmakers from the African continent and the diaspora.

The selection of films in Echoes in the Frame point to similar themes in Jeannette Ehlers’solo exhibition Archives in the Tongue: A Litany of Freedoms. In this program a range of expressions and interventions are highlighted with each offering significant confrontations with the filmic apparatus and forms of representation in order to rethink both the cinematic form and its purpose. Here, the camera collides with abstract techniques for uncompromising and sharp-toothed meditations that interweave memories, joins, and other streams of being to reflect upon Black lives across time and space.

The screening on June 15 begins with a brief introduction by CAS’s founder Awa Konaté. She will share more about the films and the themes that the program intends to address.

It is free to participate and requires no registration.
