Still Processing: Photography and the Moving Image

Curated by C. Jacqueline Wood

Doors 7:00 PM / Start 7:30 PM @ The Mini Microcinema - 1329 Main St.

Oftentimes, experimental film and media makers use photographic archives as both objects (and subjects) in their work. The printed, tangible photograph, is not only a referential visual device, with the ability to call on a historical moment passed, but calls on the viewer to consider the similarities and differences between the mediums themselves. Still Processing: Photography and the Moving Image is a program of short films that explores the use of the photograph in various ways: as a visual source, storytelling device, or aesthetic strategy. Presenting work by Stephanie Barber,  Harun Farocki, Siegfried A. Fruhauf, Ariana Gerstein, Karø Goldt, and Shelly Silver. (60 min)

FotoFocus at "The Mini: Cinema and Archive" is a curated exhibition for the 2018 FotoFocus Biennial: Open Archive. Now in its fourth iteration, the Biennial spans over 90 projects at museums, galleries, and universities across Greater Cincinnati; Northern Kentucky; Dayton and Columbus, Ohio; and features more than 400 artists, curators, and educators. The Open Archive theme emphasizes the centrality of photography and lens-based art to modernism, and examines our fundamental need to preserve photographs and to tell stories through their collection, organization, and interpretation.
