SUMMARY:Black & White Comedy in a Color World: Paper Moon
DESCRIPTION:Although color film technology was available since the early 1930s\, black & white and color films both co-existed in theaters until color would dominate filmmaking by the early 1970s. Yet monochrome film would still occasionally be used for feature films\, resulting in some of the most-esteemed titles of the last fifty years (RAGING BULL\, SCHINDLER’S LIST & ERASERHEAD among them). \nWhile in modern times black & white is often deployed to suggest past periods or austere seriousness\, some of the color era’s most-striking comedies have also been shot in the process. We’ll discuss what black & white brings to the comic tone of these films as well as examine the careers and artistic interests of the directors and their collaborators. Following the films we’ll enjoy an open class discussion. \nThis week\, we’ll be screening PAPER MOON (1973\, dir. Peter Bogdanovich\, 102 min.\, U.S.). \nOther films to be screened:\nTHE PLOT AGAINST HARRY (1971\, dir. Michael Roemer\, 81 min.\, U.S.). on January 26 | REGISTER\nSIDEWALK STORIES (1989\, dir. Charles Lane\, 97 min.\, U.S.) on February 9 | REGISTER\nLA VIE DE BOHÈME (1992\, dir. Aki Kaurismäki\, 103 min.\, Finland) on February 23 | REGISTER\nCOMPUTER CHESS (2013\, dir. Andrew Bujalski\, 92 min.\, U.S.) on March 2 | REGISTER\nFRANCES HA (2012\, dir. Greta Gerwig\, 86 min.\, U.S.) on March 9 | REGISTER \n

SUMMARY:jumpstART: One of a Kind Screenprint
DESCRIPTION:Explore and experiment with the immediacy of this one of a kind screenprinting technique. Printed images will be made using Caran D’Ache water-soluble crayons and soft graphite to create layers of drawings and textures. Explore the many different effects possible achieved with simple\, freeing and direct techniques. You do not need to have a plan for an image\, as it is possible to experiment with the materials and our extensive collection of textures that we use for rubbings directly on the screen. Of course\, if you have some ideas in mind please bring in sketches or images to use for source material.

SUMMARY:Polaroid Transfers (one-day workshop)
DESCRIPTION:Fun\, fast\, and with a totally unique image quality\, instant film is the perfect medium to get experimental with your photography. In this single day session\, we’ll explore using a variety of Polaroid cameras to make creative and unexpected images using the new Polaroid Originals film. Then we’ll learn how to cut apart those iconic plastic frames and transfer our images onto art paper for a totally different look\, inviting wrinkles\, tears\, and other surprising artifacts into the photographs. Forgetting about the “rules” of photography\, we’ll dive into a sense of playfulness as we get inspired by the multitude of ways that artists have manipulated this medium to create one-of-a-kind imagery. \nWhat you will learn:\n1. A brief overview of different cameras and film types in the Polaroid Originals system\n2. Creative exposure techniques\n3. How to transfer integral film emulsion onto fine art paper and other surfaces\n4. Inspiration for future creative exploration using Polaroid cameras and film \nAccessibility Note: This studio has partial stair access. The main workspace is reachable via an alternate entrance\, but some areas require stairs. Please contact adulteducation@fleisher.org to discuss accommodations.

SUMMARY:Black & White Comedy in a Color World: Computer Chess
DESCRIPTION:Although color film technology was available since the early 1930s\, black & white and color films both co-existed in theaters until color would dominate filmmaking by the early 1970s. Yet monochrome film would still occasionally be used for feature films\, resulting in some of the most-esteemed titles of the last fifty years (RAGING BULL\, SCHINDLER’S LIST & ERASERHEAD among them). \nWhile in modern times black & white is often deployed to suggest past periods or austere seriousness\, some of the color era’s most-striking comedies have also been shot in the process. We’ll discuss what black & white brings to the comic tone of these films as well as examine the careers and artistic interests of the directors and their collaborators. Following the films we’ll enjoy an open class discussion. \nThis week\, we’ll be screening COMPUTER CHESS (2013\, dir. Andrew Bujalski\, 92 min.\, U.S.). \nOther films to be screened:\nTHE PLOT AGAINST HARRY (1971\, dir. Michael Roemer\, 81 min.\, U.S.). on January 26 | REGISTER\nPAPER MOON (1973\, dir. Peter Bogdanovich\, 102 min.\, U.S.) on February 2 | REGISTER\nSIDEWALK STORIES (1989\, dir. Charles Lane\, 97 min.\, U.S.) on February 9 | REGISTER\nLA VIE DE BOHÈME (1992\, dir.
