Description: |
American Graffiti Drive! Car Culture On Film at Heckscher Museum of Art in Collaboration with Cinema Arts Centre at Cinema Arts Centre in Huntington, Long Island, New York.
On June 27, enjoy American Graffiti, the 1973 coming of age film directed and co-written by George Lucas, a study of the "cruising" and rock 'n' roll cultures. An introduction and discussion will be led by Photographer Joseph Szabo.
Drive! Car Culture on Film is presented in collaboration with Cinema Arts Centre. The movies and the automobile were born almost simultaneously. Both discoveries transformed American in the 20th century and have proven to be a perfect match. By their very nature, movies thrive on movement, and few things go faster than cars. This series will celebrate and explore the iconic imagery, kinetic pleasure, and social significance of car culture in the movies. |
