Los Angeles Filmforum presents *Filmforum 50, program 9: An Evening with Morgan Fisher*. The program includes five of Fisher's key works, projected in 16mm. ∆ A crucial participant and creator of experimental film in Los Angeles for close to sixty years, Morgan Fisher’s precise and beautiful films each address aspects of the processes of filmmaking with humor and conceptual rigor. As a member of the Los Angeles Independent Film Oasis (along with other key figures such as Pat and Beverly O’Neill, David and Diana Wilson, and Amy Halpern), he helped Los Angeles audiences have the opportunity to see essential films works in the late 1970s and early 1980s. His painting practice, which evolves from his same concerns with essential processes, color, and elements of personal history, has been featured in multiple exhibitions. Filmforum last hosted a one-person program with Fisher in 2004, and we’re delighted to honor him with some of the highlights of his cinematic oeuvre as part of our 50th anniversary celebration.
