Independent filmmaker Lewis Klahr works with cutout animation because of his love for materials that give him access to memory and history and the kinetic interspace they create between the personal and the cultural. His films involve a recombination of elements, a retelling of forms and events, a slowing down of time -- and can be most accurately described as re-animation. Klahr has selected three pieces never before shown in Los Angeles -- 'Marietta's Lied,' 'Pharaoh's Belt' and 'Daylight Moon.' Klahr will be available to answer any questions.
