Edge of Frame at SLEEPCENTER
Curated by Edwin Rostron
Thursday 7th June 2018
SLEEPCENTER, New York City

Still from Soft Body Goal (2017) by Jaakko Pallasvuo

This programme of contemporary and historical experimental animation was specially selected to accompany Ian Gouldstone’s exhibition IN THE SHADE BUT NOT THE SHADOW at SLEEPCENTER. Whist originating in a wide range of different media and contexts, and utilising languages of abstraction, drama and documentary, often within the same film, the films in this programme each connect to ideas and processes in Ian’s work in diverse and compelling ways.

SLEEPCENTER, located on the harmonious Monroe street of Chinatown, New York, is a safe house/experimental lab for art and ideas that provides local communities and international audiences with a forum for cultural dialogue.
