GME Distributes Work by Filmmakers Featured in the Film-Makers' Cooperative and Film at Lincoln Center's Series "Seeing the City: Avant-Garde Visions of New York"

From May 3rd to 7th, Film at Lincoln Center and the Film-Makers’ Cooperative mounted a 10-program series of films and video art titled Seeing the City: Avant-Garde Visions of New York from the Film-Makers’ Cooperative Collection and Beyond. Today is the final day of this series, which highlights works from within and outside of the FMC’s archive that chronicle New York City from a diverse array of perspectives. GME is proud to distribute, to the North American university market, titles by a number of filmmakers whose films appear in this series, such as Stan Brakhage, Holly Fisher, Marie Menken, Ian Hugo, Francis Thompson, and Rudy Burckhardt. GME distributes, as well, many other international city symphony films — not only of New York, but also San Francisco, Los Angeles, Berlin, Ostend, Granada, Lourdes, Cassis, Brussels, and elsewhere.
