Zen Cinema
Curated by Keely Macarow
With assistance by Ian Haig and Corinne Preston


Zen Cinema surveys and celebrates inspirational and definitive avant-garde and experimental films and
videos that have been produced throughout the 20th Century. Spanning short film and video works by the
mavericks and luminaries of the Surrealist and Dadaist movements, the beauty and dynamism of the
over-exposed, under-exposed and scratched oeuvre of the American experimental filmmaker, Stan Brakhage, the macho campdom of Kenneth Anger and the brazen grrrl power that is Sadie Benning, Zen Cinema is essential viewing for audiences that are priming their imaginations for the screen culture of the 21st Century.
