[Cinema Program] Emiko Kasahara “trigonometry”
Emiko Kasahara
Parasophia will be presenting a series of film screenings at the Film Theatre of the Museum of Kyoto as the Cinema Program portion of Parasophia: Kyoto International Festival of Contemporary Culture 2015. One series of screenings is curated by participating artist and film scholar Alexander Zahlten, featuring Japanese films from the 1960s to the present with the theme of “East Asia in Japanese cinema,” and another series is selected by participating artist Emiko Kasahara in connection with the historical background on which her work for the exhibition is based, with films from Manchukuo among others. Further screenings of works by Parasophia’s participating artists and other related films are also scheduled, bringing the total to approximately 20 films in all. There will also be talks by the directors of several films and other related events over the course of the screenings. See this website for the latest updates.
