LARRY GOTTHEIM is a key figure in the history and development of American avant-
garde cinema through the 1970s and 1980s. From his late-1960s series of sublime
'single-shot' films to the dense sound/image constructs of the mid-1970s and after, his
cinema is the cinema of presence, of observation, and of deep conscious engagement.
While addressing genres of landscape, diary and assemblage filmmaking, Gottheim's
work properly stands alone in its intensive investigations of the paradoxes between
direct, sensual experience in collision with complex structures of repetition, anticipation
and memory. Gottheim founded the Department of Cinema at Binghamton University
and taught there until 1998. In the 1990's Gottheim has also served for a brief time as
director of the Filmmaker's Co-op in New York. Gottheim's films are in the collections of
museums and archives throughout the world, and a program of his restored early films
premiered at the 2005 New York Film Festival.
