Hundred Year Old Films for Pera Museum's 10th Year Fantasia of Color

In 2015, EYE published Fantasia of Color in Early Cinema, based entirely on its own archival holdings. Hundreds of colorful frames from more than 60 films (1897-1915) were selected to be included in this book about fairy-tale, dream, metamorphosis and voyage. This film program presents some of the highlights allowing the audience to see the entire films that are only represented by few still images in the book.

Portrait of Martín Zapater (1797)

Martín Zapater y Clavería, born in Zaragoza on November 12th 1747, came from a family of modest merchants and was taken in to live with a well-to-do aunt, Juana Faguás, and her daughter, Joaquina de Alduy. He studied with Goya in the Escuelas Pías school in Zaragoza from 1752 to 1757 and a friendship arose between them which was to last until the death of Zapater in 1803.
