About
In collaboration with ARTIVISM, join the Belkin staff for a tour of Elemental Cinema at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery on October 11 from 1-2 PM.
Elemental Cinema brings together the collaborative film works of Denise Ferreira da Silva and Arjuna Neuman. In this series of films, the four elements – water, earth, fire, air – inform the artists’ considerations of an entangled existence, and of time and value that reimagine knowledge and existence “otherwise.” This exhibition includes installations of their films to date: Serpent Rain (2016), 4 Waters – Deep Implicancy (2019) and Soot Breath // Corpus Infinitum (2020), as well as archives related to the films. The three films, exhibited together for the first time, present an immersive experience situating the body in relation to the four elements.
Spaces on this tour are limited, to reserve a spot please contact the Belkin at [email protected].

Organizer
Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery
The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery is mandated to promote understanding and discussion of contemporary art and contemporary issues in art history, criticism and curating. Our mandate is realized through research, exhibitions, acquisitions, publishing, education and public and academic programs in the field of contemporary art with a focus on our region within a national and international context.
As a university art gallery, the Belkin is committed to a research mandate, an international perspective and to the goal of fostering a civil society.
The Belkin seeks to explore the ways in which the practice of contemporary art is in itself a form of research that produces knowledge. Through our exhibitions, publications, events and programs, we raise awareness and encourage debate in the field of contemporary art.
