JAMES HARRAR ADDITIONAL INFO
James Harrar has been crafting densely lyrical film-poems
Since the late 1980’s exhibiting at prestigious venues such as the
Museum of Modern Art, Anthology Film Archives, and The Andy
Warhol Museum to name a few. His films are personal in a very
direct and explicit sense. In an intimate form, Harrar attempts
to imprint thoughts, dreams and conceptual ideas onto the
open-minded viewer while examining the possibilities of
perception. Throughout his career, Harrar has tried to give
the viewer new visual experiences while challenging fixed notions
of filmic language and individual seeing. Since 1995 James has
been collaborating with Marshall Allen, creating live music to
Harrar’s silent films. Marshall Allen explores sound in much
the same manner that Harrar attempts to explore the moving image.
Together they complete a creative cycle similar in tradition
with the 17th century alchemical opus.
