Wakefield Poole's softcore anthology featuring stories of Adam & Eve, Bath Sheba and Samson & Delilah given sexual twists.
Made as part of a Triton Gallery show to publicize the poster art of Canadian artist Vittorio Fiorucci, filmmaker Wakefield Poole cut apart posters and hand-animated the film using his 8mm camera to create stop-motion. The film was combined with dancers, lighting and projections to create an innovative gallery show.
Wakefield Poole’s fifth short is an intimate portrait of a man named... Roger.
In 1968, Wakefield Poole filmed an exhibition of Andy Warhol's work at the Whitney Museum. He edited ANDY "in-camera" as he filmed it, then created a collage soundtrack and presented a print to Warhol as a birthday gift. When BOYS IN THE SAND opened in New York, Poole showed ANDY before each screening.
Shot in the Fire Island Pines during the same summer Poole filmed the first segment of his debut feature film "Boys in the Sand," this short was made in collaboration with the director's close friend and visual artist Ed Parente. The film serves as a visual love letter to Parente's boyfriend Fred, who was often away while the two spent time filming on the island.
Stepping out of the sixties and in the wake of the Stonewall Riots, (considered the birth of the modern LGBTQIA+ liberation movement), the 1970s would prove to be a decade energized by queer activism, political and social change and pride. Celebrating such a vitally important legacy, this collection of gay protest and parade films is an essential multifaceted document of a period of revolution and jubilation.
Director Wakefield Poole moved to San Francisco in 1974 and captured the energy and sights of an early San Francisco gay pride parade, set to a campy, eclectic soundtrack.
