“An overriding theme of films made during the ’70s was how to subjectivize the world, how to transform the camera’s capacity as a recording device into a vehicle for self-expression. Tonight’s program explores the ways this impulse manifested itself, from Peter Gidal’s material-driven Condition of Illusion to Richard Levine’s impressionistic In the Eye of a Child, along with films by Michael Mideke, Barbara Lattanzi, and Jim Jennings”.–D.G.
