Video Art by Dennis Hlynsky
All are welcome.
Join the Imago Film Club as we host filmmaker and video artist Dennis Hlynsky at Imago Gallery.
Hlynsky will be screening several short films, including Hand from the 1970s, Mr. Buttons Gets an Upgrade, Dogtown, Part One, and an 18-minute film called Tales of a Digital Immigrant. He will also share some of his recent experiments with AI.
Tales of a Digital Immigrant is an episodic series of first-person narratives woven into a self-portrait. In the film, memory becomes an interpretive craft—one that elevates the ordinary and embraces embellishment as the stories in this film are drawn entirely from personal recollection.
The screening will be followed by a question-and-answer session led by Katherine Reaves, filmmaker, Imago community member and facilitator of the Film Club.
The Imago Film Club meets monthly September through June on the second Thursday of the month from 7–8:30 PM. The club is a welcoming community of film enthusiasts who gather to explore and discuss the art of cinema at Imago Gallery, 36 Market Street in Warren. All are welcome. Participation is free.
Dennis Hlynsky
A co-founder of Electron Movers in Providence during the 1970s, Hlynsky was an early adopter of electronic imaging. Beginning in 1972 with the emergence of early forms of video signal processing, he focused his artistic research on instances of group activity. He started teaching at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in the mid 1980s and served as the chair of the Film/Animation/Video Program for 12 years. His experiments with frame-stacking to trace the movement of birds gained worldwide attention.
