From 1924 until the present, Belle Park and Belle Island have been photographed regularly from the air — part of a worldwide practice of geographical documentation for military, climatological, and economic purposes. Belle Park from the Air, a short video by Dorit Naaman, Francine Berish, and Laura Murray, with sound by Matt Rogalsky, shows the changes and continuities of this particular space over a century as the wetland was made into a dump and then a park. Initially, we had mainly informational aims, but we find that what we have created, especially with the soundtrack, has a bit of magic to it, and invites response and discussion well beyond the facts. We hope you think so too. The screening will be followed by comments from the makers of the film, and community conversation. We want to know what you see!
No tickets or registration required. Light refreshments will be served.
