Charles Atlas: Film Screening and Conversation at the University of Tampa

Charles Atlas: Film Screening & Conversation Join us on the University of Tampa campus for a screening of Tyranny of Consciousness and Channels/Inserts by American artist Charles Atlas, a pioneering filmmaker and video artist. Since the 1970s, Atlas has created an influential body of work that reimagines the relationship between choreography, performance, and the moving image. Following the screening, Charles Atlas will join us live via Zoom for a Q&A, offering a unique opportunity to hear directly from the artist about his practice and groundbreaking career. The program will include an introduction and post-screening discussion led by Timothy Ridlen, Professor of Film, Animation, and New Media at the University of Tampa, and Joanna Robotham, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Tampa Museum of Art. This program is presented in conjunction with Atlas’s Kiss the Day Goodbye, currently on view at the Tampa Museum of Art. Location: Ferman Center for the Arts University of Tampa 214 N.
