Now showing in the window at 1200 N Alvarado St: a selection from Christina Battle’s series Notes to Self. Playing 24/7 for at least two weeks, but best seen after the sun has gone down. Come see it before curfew! @c_l_battle

Notes to Self is an ongoing series of videos documenting a simple, repetitive act as a way to mimic our fleeting engagement with social media status updates. Fragments of text, in the form of notes to myself, are set on fire with varying degrees of success. Unlike social media updates, the fate of these updates is controlled and finite, existing only for a few seconds before being completely destroyed. The notes, which range from humourous reminders and revelations to recollections about larger societal events, are simple in both form and execution, allowing for a critical and considered viewing response.

Now showing in the window at 1200 N Alvarado: Chloe Reyes’ film New Sun Breathing In. Come by and see this beautiful portrait of Reyes’ grandmother in her home.

Now showing in the Window-Cine at 1200 N Alvarado: artist Kate Lain’s Smoke and Ash Loops, made in Pasadena between September 8-14, 2020, with smoke and ash from the ongoing Bobcat Fire. Also check out the window installation created by Kate to accompany the film.  Show will be up for about 2-3 weeks. Come for a stroll and watch–open 24 hours a day.

WINDOW-CINE is open 24 hours a day, showing silent films (or sound films silently) in our window at 1200 N Alvarado St.
Now showing: Frente a Frente by Caitlin Díaz @shinykid , a dual projection 16mm film she made while an artist-in-residence at EPFC in 2016. Caitlin is working on a new film commissioned by us with a grant from the @mike_kelley_foundation , so keep an eye out for a potential instagram takeover by her as she works on eco-processing over the next couple months.
We’ll be changing up the selection every other week or so. So stop by if you’re out for a walk in the neighborhood and watch a film!
