Fred Elmes to hold discussion concerning David Lynch

Written by , Posted in Art, Arts & Entertainment, Theater

On Dec. 7, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts will host a discussion with award-winning cinematographer Fred Elmes as part of the ongoing “David Lynch: The Unified Field Exhibition,” running through Jan. 11. Having collaborated on films like “Eraserhead,” “Blue Velvet” and “Wild at Heart,” Elmes and Lynch were both influenced by many different art forms in the way they told their stories.

Elmes’ interests expanded originally from photography to include cinematography and filmmaking, and this discussion will have Elmes talk about how his exploration of paintings and sculptures inform the way he tells a story through film. The event will be held at the Historic Landmark Building at 2 p.m.
