We are currently seeking proposals by a programmer, or co-programmers, for our 2020 Flaherty NYC Programmer Residency. The format of Flaherty NYC has been redesigned to engage a single programmer (or co-programmers) to develop an ambitious screening series in New York City and allow for other professional development opportunities.
The 2019 Flaherty Seminar Catalog is available now for pre-order. Celebrate the launch and purchase your copy in-person at Program 4 of Flaherty NYC: Seductive Surfaces - November 18, 7pm @ Anthology Film Archive.
Saturday evening, October 5, 2019, was the opening night to Flaherty NYC’s Fall 2019 program SURFACE KNOWLEDGE, presented with one of our new screening partners Metrograph in the Lower East Side. The program’s theme, ELECTRIC NARCISSUS, was remarkably curated by co-curators Courtney Stephens and Mathilde Walker-Billaud. Following the screening, art historian and media theorist Kris Paulsen and artist Joan Jonas engaged in an insightful discussion in which the audience was exposed to Joan and how she considers her formal process and work in relation to the present day. ELECTRIC NARCISSUS was presented in partnership with Electric Arts Intermix (EAI) and co-presented with Triple Canopy.
