At this outdoor film event, two screens are definitely better than one
First published on . Updated on 10 Jan 2012.
4A, the awesome gallery-cum-performance space in Chinatown, is once again producing its annual outdoor cinema event. And this time, much of the programme is in double-vision.
Cinema Alley, a temporary screening space in Haymarket's Parker Street, has been popping up for the last three years to show video art and contemporary films relating to Asian culture. The twist this year is that alongside the single channel screenings, there'll also be a line-up of two-channel works, which will be shown on two screens simultaneously. Images are layered and synthesised into new meanings to create an unconventional cinematic experience.
The unique event will be the perfect way to usher in the Year of the Dragon as the precinct celebrates Chinese New Year.
Bookings essential.
