DESCRIPTION:\n	Fuses \n	\n	Dir. Carolee Schneemann. 1967\, 22 mins. New dig
 ital restoration. Drawing on documentary footage of her and her lover’s lo
 ve-making\, it builds a strongly poetic texture of feeling and experience 
 by subjecting the film strip to the most violent experimentation (soaking 
 it in acids and dyes\; baking\, painting\, and scratching it) and dissolvi
 ng narrative continuity into a continuum of non-sequential\, polymorphous\
 , and strongly “pornographic” imagery. Nevertheless\, as Gene Youngblood o
 bserves in his Expanded Cinema: “This is a home\, not a whorehouse” and th
 e filmmaker’s sensitivity and authenticity never let us forget it. \n	\n	
 \n	Preceded by: \n	\n	The Bed \n	\n	Dir. James Broughton. 1968\, 20 mins. 
 16mm. With Florence Allen\, Gavin Arthur\, Imogen Cunningham. The entire c
 ast of this delightful\, wise manifesto of counter-cultural sensibility pe
 rforms in the nude. An ornate bed\, magically located in a meadow\, provid
 es\, as always\, the stage for man’s most significant moments\; birth\, se
 x\, death. While even avant-garde nudity seems often to betray an absence 
 of joyful or uncomplicated sex\, The Bed displays a smiling\, polymorphous
 ly perverse eroticism. \n	\n	\n	Fly \n	\n	Dir. Yoko Ono. 1970\, 25 mins. 1
 6mm. With Virginia Lust. A hypnotic juxtaposition of predatory insect and 
 beautiful body\, with neither party performing according to rules\, thereb
 y disrupting the reality game. For 25 minutes we see a very pretty girl\, 
 deeply asleep\, over whose nude body creeps a diligent fly that never take
 s off but explores her fully\, including pubic hair and sex. The film is a
 lmost entirely in close-up\, with nipples appearing as mountain tops\, the
  fly as climber\, the girl’s body as the fly’s universe. \n	\n	\n	Free wit
 h Museum admission on a first-come\, first-served basis. Museum members ma
 y reserve tickets in advance by calling 718 777 6800. For more information
