The Best of
Aurora Picture Show, Volume 3
Called "as charmingly raw as it gets" by The New York
Daily News, Aurora Picture Show brings its raw-ness from Houston
to New York. This collection of short films and videos are the
finest among the thousands of works screened by Aurora in the
last two years, including titles by Enid Baxter Blader, Jim Finn
and Eileen Maxson, found videos, and cinema for the ear. Founding
Director/High Priestess, Andrea Grover, will be in attendance
to introduce the program.
Aurora Picture Show is the only venue of its kind in the Southwest.
An internationally recognized non-profit cinema, Aurora presents
thematic screenings of short works by non-commercial film, video,
and new media artists. Housed in a renovated 1924 church building,
Aurora retains its evangelical routes by converting thousands
to avant garde cinema. Aurora's most recent project (June 2006),
the "Floating Cinema," in collaboration with Minetta
Brook, New York, screened the works of James Benning, Andy Warhol,
and Peter Hutton to an audience of 10,000 on the banks of Houston's
Buffalo Bayou.
