Apocalyptic Architecture: A 3-Channel Installation
Sunday September 27th - 6:30PM
Convent of St. Cecilia
21 Monitor Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222
For the third installment of the roving Get Ahead Festival, whose theme is "End Times," we will be doing an installation rendition of our previous screening, "The Banality of Disaster." What was implied in the earlier program will be made manifest, literal, as three of the films are projected simultaneously, side-by-side(-by-side). The juxtapositions, and their synchronicity, will be explicit; and in an abandoned convent, at that.
