Double Feature Screening at Wexner Arts Center

Fly far away with a fabulous double feature screening of:

“The Pharaoh’s Belt”
(Lewis Klahr, 1993)

and

“The Thief of Bagdad”
(Ludwig Berger, Michael Powell, and Tim Whelan, 1940)

Lewis Klahr is the 2009-10 Wexner Center Residency Award media arts recipient. In this program, Klahr matches his own dazzling film with the exotic 1940s classic.

The Pharaoh’s Belt is “an epic collage-animation journey through a midcentury suburban boy’s imagination.” The Thief of Bagdad, based on The Arabian Nights, is also an adventure into a world of fantasy.
