Ben Rivers will show and discuss his short films at SVA with Benjamin Cook, director of the LUX. The subject of Rivers’ films is often those who choose a way of life that quietly, but resolutely, refuses to submit to the demands of conventional living Shooting with a Bolex camera onto 16mm film, he will often hand process the films in his kitchen sink, the splash and mark of this process remaining as traces on the image. The films in which he collages together footage and sound with a distinct lyrical rhythm and eye have been attracting much attention within the art world and awards at international film festivals. Presented by Mezz in association with LUX.
