The Early Films of Peter Tscherkassky are Screening at Light Industry

After a decade in Greenpoint, Light Industry has moved to East Williamsburg and begin their fall season with a selection of early films by Peter Tscherkassky. The works assembled here stand as some of the most vital cinematic experiments of the late 20th century, appealing, at once, to the eye through the virtuosity of their formal construction, and to the theoretical imagination through their rigorous conceptual strategies.
