GME Launches The Adrienne Mancia Streaming Room with a Program of Holiday Shorts

Today, Gartenberg Media Enterprises is honored to launch TheAdrienne Mancia Streaming Room. Here, you can stream films, clips, and other audiovisual ephemera related to the professional career of legendary film programmer and curator Adrienne Mancia. Mancia, who passed away in 2022 at the age of 95, was a friend and colleague of GME’s. She worked closely with Jon Gartenberg in the film department at the Museum of Modern Art during the 1970s and ‘80s, where she redefined the field of film programming. As the holiday season approaches, GME’s launch of the Adrienne Mancia Streaming Room comprises an international array of short films, a format that Adrienne championed throughout her career. The movies streamed here are primarily in the experimental vein, and thus are lesser-known movies in the canon of holiday films. This selection incorporates abstract and hand-painted films, found footage movies, puppet animation, and live action. The international reach of Mancia’s programming interests is represented here with films from the United States, Czechoslovakia, Great Britain, and Germany.
