Black Cinema House: Terence Nance
Black Cinema House: Terence Nance
This event features a screening of works by Terence Nance followed by a discussion between the artist and BlackStar Projects CEO Maori Karmael Holmes.
This event, organized by Theaster Gates and Rebuild Foundation and presented as part of the Arts Labs project at the Neubauer Collegium, celebrates the return of Black Cinema House. A special screening of selected works by artist, musician, and filmmaker Terence Nance will be followed by a conversation between the artist and Maori Karmael Holmes (filmmaker, curator, and Chief Executive and Artistic Officer of BlackStar Projects). Selected works include: Random Acts of Flyness, V O R T E X +, and a film from the artist’s first solo museum exhibition, Terence Nance: Swarm, curated by Holmes.
This is the first of a series of screenings and discussions that center contemporary Black film, formalist film theory, the archive of Black cinema, and its sonic, spatial, and international significance. Rebuild will present Black Cinema House across a constellation of place-based experimental platforms and sites on the South Side, engaging filmmakers, technicians, scholars, critics, students, film collectives, and community members to join as partners and presenters.
Presented with support from the Arts Labs project at the Neubauer Collegium, the Ford Foundation, and the Monastery Foundation.
