Acropolis Cinema presents: The Guests
The Guests (Dir. Ken Jacobs, 2013)
Date: October 09, 2018 Time: 8:00pm Location: Downtown Independent Address: 251 S. Main St, Los Angeles, CA. 90012
Los Angeles premiere, co-presented by Los Angeles Filmforum and 3D Space. Ken Jacobs in person!
Ken Jacobs has been concerned with the exploration of stereoscopic phenomena since the mid 1960s. He has experimented with a number of 3D techniques, and has developed ways to infuse his 2D work with heightened illusions of depth. The Guests, which has existed previously as a slide installation and an anaglyph video, will be presented tonight in its final incarnation: as a digital 3D spectacle. Continuing the work started with Tom, Tom the Pipers Son, Ken Jacobs revisits an early Lumière Brothers film, Entree dune noce à léglise (1896). As we watch the congregation mounting the steps of a Parisian church, our attention is drawn to the smallest of details: from the grain of the image to the facial gestures of the long-dead guests to the city landscape behind them. Ken Jacobs does more than extend the time (and space) of the original footage; he invites us to see in a way that we have never seen before. (Bozar)
