Four Films by Yuri Ancarani

  • This is a past program

Yuri Ancarani’s films transform mundane habits and rituals into spectacular narratives. In his hands, a dig for marble becomes a symphony conducted by a maestro, undersea gas line repair and tumor removal play out as science-fiction odysseys, and preparations for a soccer match in Milan are conducted with expert precision and almost religious devotion. The screenings are followed by a Q&A with the artist.

All Hammer public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from an anonymous donor.

Generous support is also provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, an anonymous donor, The Samuel Goldwyn Foundation, and all Hammer members.

The Hammer’s digital presentation of its public programs is made possible by the Billy and Audrey L. Wilder Foundation.
