DESCRIPTION:RITUALS IN THE AVANT-GARDE: FILM EXPERIMENTS IN 1960-70s JAPAN\
 nFebruary 20 &ndash\; February 26\n$10 General Admission\n $8 Essential Ci
 nema (free for members)\n $8 Students\, seniors\, and children (12 &amp\;

 e on the day of the show only. The box  office opens 30 minutes before the
  first show of the day. There are no  advance ticket sales. Reservations a
 re available to Anthology members  only.\n\nThis series brings together a 
 wide scope of artistic activity that  emerged from the outer limits of fil
 m expression in the most politically  fervent period of Japan&rsquo\;s rec
 ent history. The program navigates rarely  screened works from the 1960s a
 nd early 1970s that span genres including  documentary\, dance film\, anim
 ation\, softcore pink\, and queer cinema.  What ties these seemingly dispa
 rate films together are their commitment  to radical expression\, which ca
 me to redefine what constituted  avant-garde output. The program has been 
 designed to coincide and  resonate with the Museum of Modern Art&rsquo\;s 
 &lsquo\;Tokyo 1955-1970&rsquo\; exhibition  and &lsquo\;Art Theater Guild 
 and Japanese Underground Cinema 1962-1984&rsquo\; film  series.\n \n Curat
 ed by Go Hirasawa and Julian Ross\, and co-organized by the Japan Foundati
 on.\n \n Very  special thanks to Katsu Kanai\, Yoshihiro Kato\, Henrikku M
