Garage Screen and Beat Film Festival present a program of film screenings at Garage Museum of Contemporary Art
In June, a series of documentaries on contemporary art and culture will be screened in the Museum’s auditorium. Aalto is a rare look at the biography of the great Finnish architect Alvar Aaalto; Nam June Paik: Moon is the Oldest TV and Kobra Self-Portrait are about the video artist Nam June Paik and Brazilian street artist Eduardo Kobra. The program also includes films about two legendary places on the map of New York, reminiscences about a bohemian hotel that was a shelter for all of the celebrities in the city (Dreaming Walls: Inside the Chelsea Hotel) and Studio 54, about the legendary club founded by Andy Warhol. The series will conclude with films about the sources of creativity. Lynch/Oz describes what inspired David Lynch, director of Twin Peaks and Blue Velvet, and Fashion Reimagined is about designer and BFC/Vogue Fashion Fund Award winner Amy Powney, who is searching for a way to create truly sustainable garment production.
