OFF CENTER: ANALOG DREAMING
@ Gene Siskel Film Center
164 N State St, Chicago, IL 60601
Opening Monday, September 29th, at 6PM
This program celebrates the vast legacy of one of the Northwest’s most prolific filmmakers and composers, Jon Behrens (1964–2022), showcasing his unique experiments with image, sound, and celluloid. Made using myriad formats, styles, and approaches, his films are both simple and complex, lyrical and psychedelic, meditative and visually challenging. Come see hand-painted film, abstracted cityscapes, optically printed NASA footage, and three unreleased films. Curated by Kornelia Boczkowska. Dialogue: virtual Q&A with Interbay Cinema Society Executive Director Caryn Cline and Kornelia Boczkowska.
OFF CENTER is a basement. OFF CENTER is a backyard. OFF CENTER is a place to come hang and experience weird films together in the spirit of DIY filmmaking and the microcinema. Programmed by Michael Wawzenek.
The Film Center is ADA accessible. This presentation will be projected without open captions. The theater is hearing-loop equipped. For accessibility requests, please email filmcenter@saic.edu
