     Lee Lavy: Excavation

    A Temporal portal transports 2 post-human toxic waste beings (inheritors of the garbage of earth) inside the window gallery of Artist Television Access. The future being’s residency within our perceived realm of time and space will labor together on an archeological excavation and attempt to make sense of the objects they uncover. Anachronisms will abound in 1 of SF’s most important cultural hold outs.

    Post-Anthropocene hominoids will be digging at ATA window gallery July 5th, 9th and 11th. An opening reception will be held Wednesday July 13th where humans can enjoy beverages and possibly ponder their loose hold of history, place and being.

    Shadows blooming

    Emanating softly

    Like darkness off the water

    Searching for markers in an inextricable landscape through heuristic process and dream memory.

  • Lise Swenson: a celebration of life and work

    lisePlease join ATA and Other Cinema in celebrating Lise’s life and work. Lise was one of the founders of ATA, and the force behind shaping ATA into the renegade institution we love today. She was a great filmmaker and a beloved educator. We will reflect on her monumental contribution to ATA and the community as an artists, educator, and organizer.

It is a great place to network, if you are a filmmaker, crew member, actor or a fan of local films. Please let us know if you would like to screen something. We love films and would love to see yours.
