4 Gimme Shelter (Janus Films)

MAY 4–JUNE 9, 2013

“This film should be played loud!” is the title card at the beginning of The Last Waltz, ’s 1978 concert film featuring The Band. Scorsese raised the music film to a cinematic art form, with top-notch cinematography and a superbly crafted stereo sound mix. Other music films, such as D.A. Pennebaker’s Don’t Look Back, offer a more raw and spontaneous experience, capturing the excitement of live performance and the candid reality of backstage life. And some, such as Richard Lester’s A Hard Day’s Night, put a real band into a fictional context. This series features all three of these types of films: concert films, vérité documentaries, and fiction films. What the movies all have in common is that each one focuses on a single performer or band… and all of them are meant to be seen—and heard—in a theater, played LOUD!

15 IN THE LOBBY

THROUGH JUNE 30, 2013

Organized by Jason Eppink, Associate Curator of Digital Media

Artist Evan Roth (b. 1978) reappropriates public space, popular culture, and digital techniques to create surprising and illuminating works both on and off the Internet. A Tribute to Heather consists of ten new entries in his ongoing series, One Gif Compositions. For these works, Roth embeds a single animated GIF in a website hundreds of times to produce a rich tapestry of color and motion. The URL of each Composition serves as its title, describing the repeated animation and the background color. Because file load times vary every time a One Gif Composition website is accessed, each viewing is unique.

The animations in A Tribute to Heather were sourced from Heathers Animations, a sprawling hand-coded archive of 90s-era animated GIFs and background images operated by its elusive namesake, Heather. Founded in 1999, the site maintains the ethos of the early web, eschewing author attribution and copyright concerns to offer a wandering taxonomy of thousands of downloadable images.

For A Tribute to Heather, the Museum commissioned ten One Gif Compositions for its 50-foot-long lobby wall. Each Composition is exhibited for a full day on a two-week cycle.

The Exorcist (1973), the story of a teenage girl possessed by the devil, remains one of the scariest films ever made. In one of the most memorable scenes in the film, the head of  Regan MacNeil, played by thirteen-year-old Linda Blair, appears to spin completely around, an effect achieved with a full-sized animatronic doll created by special effects makeup  artist Dick Smith and visual effects specialist Marcel Vercoutere.

The Regan MacNeil doll, and many other examples of special effects wizardry, are currently on exhibit in Behind the Screen.

18 The Museum’s collection of film, television, and video game licensed merchandise includes over 20,000 artifacts from 1914 to the present. It is one of only a handful of such collections in North America and, perhaps, the largest anywhere in the world in terms of size, scope, and range. The collection reveals important connections between consumerism, fan culture, and nearly one hundred years of moving image history.

The selling and distributing of star images to moviegoers became commonplace by the 1920s. Today, licensed merchandise is a multi- billion dollar industry, integral to marketing and promoting the moving image, and an indispensable revenue stream for the makers of movies, television programs, and video games.

Among the diverse array of artifacts in the Museum’s licensed merchandise collection are clothing, accessories, and sewing patterns; commercial packaging; dolls and figurines; games and toys; housewares; pin-up posters; postcards and other paper cards; school and desk supplies; sheet music and song books; sound recordings; souvenir books, novelizations, and comics.

View thousands of catalog records for licensed merchandise artifacts on the Museum’s Collection database: collection.movingimage.us.
