"Mapping Subjectivity: Experimentation in Arab Cinema from the 1960s to Now"

 

I just found out that MOMA in NYC has been screening some Arab and North African Scopitones in connection with the exhibition "Mapping Subjectivity: Experimentation in Arab Cinema from the 1960s to Now" through Sunday the 25th of this month.

They're showing in a continuous loop on a set of double TV monitors in the lobby/gallery outside the Titus Theatre. There are two Titus Theatre lobby galleries, and the Scopitones are in the smaller of the two, in a room with three Quay Brothers film sets. You don't need a ticket to a film screening to see them, anyone who is in the museum can go there.
