This program features the following film by Stan Brakhage, a recognized master of his medium. His innovative use of material, technique, and technology to create highly personal and spiritual art has brought him international acclaim.

23rd Psalm Branch: Part I (1966, 44 min.) In this haunting but lyrical meditation on war, Brakhage intercuts 8-mm footage of Colorado with imagery from World War II newsreels. He responds to the violence and nightmare of war by painting directly onto the filmstrip.
