Michael Robinson in person!
Intrepidly excavating the far reaches of pop culture and the darker corners of the American unconscious, Los Angeles-based filmmaker Michael Robinson has over the last fifteen years produced a sizable catalogue of singularly strange and intoxicatingly affecting short-form film and video works. Working largely with repurposed footage sourced from a variety of sources both recognizable (music videos, vintage television programs) and vaguely familiar (instructional videos, PSA clips), Robinson, through a shrewd blend of music, memory, and dark humor, manages to unearth something miraculous from these otherwise mundane materials. Filtered through his at once playful and incisive eye, these inherently nostalgic trappings take on an unexpectedly sinister dimension. Tonight's program, Robinson's first solo show in Los Angeles in seven years, covers over a decade of digital work, including the local premiere of his latest, the highly acclaimed Onward Lossless Follows.
