The Films of Scott Stark
Filmmaker Scott Stark in person
San Franciscan Scott Stark is one of the most active and prolific filmmakers of his generation. This will be his first one-person show at the Cinematheque. ‘‘The camera is becoming less an invisible observer and more an active participant. The completed film is a record of its own process of production. Constructions of color, pattern, shape and sound from common objects are possible solutions. Shopping malls, banks and parking lots are likely locations. The lyrical, the poetic and the absurd emerge despite an impulsive progression toward artificiality.” — S.S.
