Triumph of the Wild: New Experimental Animation from Around the World
Eric Leiser, Alice Cohen, and iotaCenter’s Programs Intern Gina Marie Napolitan in person! Los Angeles premieres!
An amazing selection from around the world of recent animation made for thinking adults, exploring techniques, landscapes, histories, physiology, and the animal kingdom in any number of insightful, beautiful, and amusing ways. With three of the filmmakers, one who curated the show, present to discuss their work. A great way to catch up with the possibilities of animation today! Curated by Eric Leiser
This show includes Demons and Cathedrals (2010) by iotaCenter’s Programs Intern Gina Marie Napolitan. “Amnesia and childhood, spooky synthesizers, pod people. A strange old almanac and a rose garden in the ruins of the world.”
