Omnium-Gatherum
Curated by Jeremy Rossen
Thursday, October 8, 2009 at 7:30pm
Portland, Oregon¹s Cinema Project is one of the most intrepid venues for
experimental film in the US, operating a 50-seat theater in a refitted
industrial warehouse space not so different from Light Industry¹s own. A
collectively-run venture since 2003, they¹ve brought local audiences an
eclectic, international array of both historical and contemporary
avant-garde cinema. We¹re proud to host this special program curated and
presented by Jeremy Rossen, Cinema Project¹s co-founder and projectionist.
³Omnium-Gatherum contains a selection of work from filmmakers whom I have
had the opportunity to meet and correspond with over the years through
programming work at Cinema Project. For this screening, however, everyone
was asked to screen work that fell into one of the following categories:
- a film that was worked on but never finished
- a film that was finished but rarely or never screened
- something "funny"
- a film that they found
- a film made while a teenager
