Art of the Real, our annual nonfiction showcase founded on the most boundary-pushing view of documentary film, began on Friday, April 8 and will run through this Thursday. Highlights of the acclaimed festival so far include a retrospective of avant-garde titan Bruce Baillie, the world premiere of Ben Rivers’s new film, the U.S. premieres of José Luis Guerín’s Academy of the Muses and Im Heung-soon’s Factory Complex, and much more! Slide through these photos of events, appearances, and talks with artists who are reenvisioning the relationship between cinema and reality and stop by for more screenings as the festival continues!
