2019 Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation

Now in its tenth year (and its fifth year at Block), the Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation is a thoughtfully-curated showcase of abstract animation and unconventional character animation that features brand-new work, recent discoveries, and tantalizing retrospective selections. Founded and programmed by filmmakers and artists Alexander Stewart and Lilli Carré, this year’s presentation at Block will include short works by Janie Geiser, Barbara Hammer, Allison Schulnik, Kevin Eskew, Sebastian Buerkner, and many more, in two different programs. "Eyeworks fuses the finest boundary-obliterating animations from past masters and contemporary virtuosos. An annual mind-melding cinematic spectacle not to be missed.”—John Klacsmann, Anthology Film Archives
