Owen Land, formerly known as George Landow, was one of the most original and celebrated American filmmakers of the 1960s and 1970s. The works he made during this period fused an intellectual sense of reason with the irreverent wit that distances them from the supposedly 'boring' world of avant-garde cinema. Owen Land has exposed the material of cinema and deconstructed its process and effect, while covering the 'big topics' of religion, psychoanalysis, commerce and as making avant-garde movies. This series of two screenings offers a retrospective survey of the artists work.
