Two large xeroxed flyers (35.5x21.6cm.).
i) An original flyer announcing the New Wave Music Film Festival at the Roxie Cinema, San Francisco, October 9, 1979. Illustrated with collage artwork.
The event showcased music films and concert footage, some of it supplied by Target Video, a San Francisco-based production group that documented the local punk and new wave scenes, as well as for “Mongoloid”, Conner’s short film based on the song by Devo. Fine;
ii) an original flyer announcing a screening of eight films by Conner at the Cento Cedar Cinema, San Francisco, August 14, 1982, including “America is Waiting” (“the latest work by Conner. Based on a Brian Eno composition”), and “Breakaway”, his 1966 classic featuring Toni Basil. Reproduces Conner’s famous collage, “Bombhead”. Fine.
