Gallery Dialogues: More Than Cinema

Join co-curator Ann Adachi-Tasch, Executive Director of the Philadelphia-based non-profit organization Collaborative Cataloging Japan (CCJ), for a walkthrough of More Than Cinema, an exhibition with explores the emergence and dynamism of the Japanese Expanded Cinema through seminal works by Motoharu Jonouchi and Keiichi Tanaami. Adachi-Tasch will provide information about the works on view, alongside CCJ’s approach to preserving and archiving historical works. As a whole, the guided tour will give insight into Jonouchi and Tanaami’s legacies within the context of the avant-garde movement, as well as Expanded Cinema’s place within the trajectory of experimental artmaking during the 20th century.
