MCA Screen: Tatsu Aoki, formalism, structuralism, and reduction

@ Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago

220 E. Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60611

Opening Tuesday, December 13th, from 6PM - 8PM

This event is free with admission, and Tuesdays are free admission for Illinois residents.

Tatsu Aoki has been creating experimental films for more than 30 years. Aoki introduces selections from his lesser-seen works on 16 mm and presents the Chicago premiere of his digital work “Pages.” Jonathan Chen, on electronics, and Jamie Kempkers, on cello, accompany the screenings, creating a live soundscape and improvised music.

The sum of Aoki’s massive filmography is an abstract visual journey of space and time that creates a singular world of waiting and pursuing. His body of minimalist and structuralist films gives shape to his belief in a spiritual paradise that is serene and simple yet full of change and chance.
