Film Festival: BLACK CUBE SHORTS

Join Black Cube for a mini film festival celebrating three short films commissioned from three international artists: Julie Béna, Anna Uddenberg, and Alejandro Almanza Pereda. This program marks the first time that each of these films will be screened in-person in the Denver area. We’ll be transported from BCHQ to Colorado’s Great Sand Dunes, controlled art gallery environments in New York and Berlin, and the historic brickmaking town of Magdalena, Jalisco. Expect blonde wigs, adult diapers, and hands working clay. A Q&A with Cortney Lane Stell, Black Cube Executive Director + Chief Curator, will follow each run of show.

Two showings: Friday, 3/27 at 7pm and Saturday, 3/28 at 1pm.
