The Gallery of Contemporary Art at UCCS and The International Experimental Cinema Exposition are proud to present a series of lectures an films based on the art of displaced cinema. Both the program and the project value the importance and effect of space, while also challenging the traditional expectations of what an exhibition site can be.

Displacement: Cinema Out of Site is comprised of:
Special Film Presentation
-and-
Lecture Series: Part One - Part Two - Part Three

The second event will be a lecture given by Christopher May and Jimmy Gable about the notion of displacement and displaced cinema and the history and philosophy of "parkour." Parkour is a discipline, non-competitive in nature, with the focus on the ability to move over, below, around, through, or anything to get by an obstacle as quickly and as efficiently as possible, as if in pursuit, usually in an urban environment. It's about having the control and know-how to create movement through an environment efficiently.

Displacement occurs when the Id wants to do something of which the Super Ego does not permit. The Ego thus finds some other way of releasing the psychic energy of the Id. Phobias may also use displacement as a mechanism for releasing energy that is caused in other ways. BIOS are available at www.galleryuccs.org
