Imaging the Avant-Garde: Taiwan Film Experiment in the 1960s
Imaging the Avant-Garde: Taiwan Film Experiment in the 1960s is part of the 2018 Taiwan International Documentary Festival. A special series featuring Taiwan’s experimental films from the 1960s with Lightbox Film Center in Philadelphia and Anthology Film Archives in New York Oct. 17-21, 2019. Half a century ago, young Taiwanese intellectuals, who had become aware of the Western The Avant-Garde movement through writings and translations, were eager to align themselves with the innovations of their counterparts in the West. They formed for themselves a concept of what “The Avant-Garde” could look like and carried out their experiments with film and theater.
The design idea was to imagine the experimental both detailed sliced work. I emphasize the black and white film’s grainy feeling and the holographic spectrum color to express the imagined The Avant-Garde.
