Description
Over her more than four-decade career, New York-based filmmaker, performer, and writer Amy Greenfield has achieved widespread critical acclaim for her genre-bending experimental films—from Antigone/Rites Of Passion to her major new live multimedia work, Club Midnight: Flesh Into Light. Exploring the dynamism of movement and the resilience of the human spirit, Greenfield is the originator of—and remains the most prolific contributor to—a new film-dance movement that has as its primary inspirations cinema, human movement, and fundamental artistic strength.
Â
An innovative exploration of an artist whom Cineaste called “the most important practitioner of experimental film-dance,†Flesh Into Light covers Greenfield’s entire career and draws attention to the more than thirty films, holographic sculptures, and video installations of this important American artist.
