The Film Gallery 15th July 12 midday-6pm



One Hundred Foot - selected by Jim Hobbs


 One Hundred Foot is the concept behind a new gathering of international filmmakers’ and artists’ 16mm films.  As an industry standard, 100 feet of film (approximately 3 minutes) is the given length for a small spool of 16mm film.  This given/standard/restraint creates a physical parameter of material and time, and has been used by artists in the past and remains a pertinent form/format for creating films. Holding true to this interest, and while still being open to interpretation, this screening will include 20 recent and archival films by artists and filmmakers whose work deals with, questions, or falls within the parameters of One Hundred Foot.  Screenings will last approximately 60 minutes and will be shown every hour.
