This spring, the Contemporary Art Gallery is pleased to present Previously Viewed, a series of artist-curated film screenings. Inviting artists from CAG’s recent and upcoming programming to present films that have been formative to their thinking and practice in some way, each screening is a one-night-only event centered on a single feature-length work. Ser Serpas has selected Lake Mungo (2008). Lake Mungo is a mockumentary that follows a ghost story and a missing-persons case, slowly unraveling a family at the seams. It presents itself as honest, almost documentary, but the truth it reveals is murky and unstable. What remains unseen becomes more disheveled than what’s shown. Its harrowing, unresolved loop stretches the emotional meaning across layers of family, memory and fabrication. That cyclical uncertainty, the sense of retreading gestures rather than resolving them, feels aligned with how I think about exhibition making, not as closure, but as the re-enactment of a rehearsed tragedy or farce, where value lies in the repetition itself. -Ser Serpas Run time: 88 minutes. Registration for this event is encouraged; tickets are free. Secure your seat here. Rush tickets will also be made available the day of the event, starting at 6:45pm. This event will be held in CAG’s B.C. Binning Gallery, which is wheelchair accessible. Additional accessibility information can be found here. This film will be presented with closed captioning.
