Seeing the City: Avant-Garde Visions of New York

Film at Lincoln Center and The Film-Makers’ Cooperative present Seeing the City: Avant-Garde Visions of New York from The Film-Makers’ Cooperative Collection and Beyond. The series will feature a diverse program of films spanning the 1940s to the 2010s that offer unique visions of the city anchored in exploration, experimentation, and subversive political commitment. Ten programs of short- and mid-length films—with many presented on 16mm—will focus on the environment, housing, encroaching gentrification, the anonymity of the crowd and mass transit, and more.
