Scents Of Forgotten Moments

New By Lewis Klahr

Yerba Buena Center for the Arts





Lewis Klahr has carved out an intimate cinematic territory combining cutout animation, bizarre whimsy and nostalgia from an imaginary past, and a critical yet appreciative eye for popular images of this century. Klahr will show Naomi Lang (1991), remarkably evoking the pathos of ‘lost’ family history revealed through an anonymous photo-album, and two new portrayals of city life, Window Portrait and Whirligigs in the Late Afternoon.
