We are pleased to announce an additional program for the finale of the 2025/26 season of the Cyclical Program.
When Peter Kubelka conceived What Is Film in 1995, his aim was to explore film as an independent art form and a tool for conveying new ways of thinking through examples. On May 12 at 6 p.m., we will present a new Program 63, in which Peter Kubelka brings together two outstanding 16mm films that both revisit the fundamental conditions and elements of film.
Peter Kubelka, whose films will conclude this year's presentation of the cycle at 8.30 p.m. with Program 64, will provide an introduction to both events. Albert Sackl will be present for the screening of his film.
