38/79 Sentimental Punk
Kurt Kren / Austria / 1979 / 5 min.
synopsis
The author emigrated to the U.S. in 1978. He took 36 photographs at a San Francisco punk festival that he later re-shot in a home screening room from a slide projector, composing them according to a rhythmic plan, thus creating a fragile recording of fretful action.
biography
A member of Vienna’s actionist movement, Kurt Kren (1929–1998) created film collages that assaulted the viewer’s senses with rapidly edited scenes.
