Artist in attendance for a live performance.

Monday, June 30, 6:00 p.m. | Acclaimed filmmaker Roger Beebe visits the Siskel Film Center for his first full solo performance in Chicago in 10 years! He’ll perform an exhilarating array of 16mm multi-projector expanded cinema pieces including LINEAGE (FOR NORMAN MCLAREN) (2019, 5x16mm), DE RERUM NATURA (2019, 3x16mm + video), and the Chicago premiere of UN ARBRE (2024, 5x16mm + video). The program will be rounded out with additional performance and essayistic work that explore the world of found images and the “found” landscapes of late capitalism. Artist in attendance for a live performance.
