Event Details

David Lynch was an American artist and filmmaker known for creating one of the most surreal and distinctive bodies of work in cinema history. His films include such classics as Eraserhead (1977), The Elephant Man (1980), Blue Velvet (1986), and Mulholland Drive (2001). Through an examination of clips from Lynch's films, documentary interviews, critical analysis, and other visual art, we will explore the imagery and motifs of his dream-like filmmaking and his influence on cinema around the world today.
