On Saturday, June 9, Daniels Faculty lecturer James Macgillivray will be introducing a screening of L'Eclisse, as part of TIFF's film series on Modernist Master: Michelangelo Antonioni. 

MacGillivray is a principal and founder of Lee and Macillivray Architecture Studio (LAMAS), and has published widely on film, architecture, and projection. As described in the TIFF listing for the event, he will discuss "how Antonioni frams space, landscape, and Rome's postward architecture in L'Eclisse to construct an environment that is as important as the people within it."

Macgillivray is also a filmmaker. He has written on film, architecture and projection for Scapegoat, ACSA Journal, The Journal of Modern Craft, the Canadian Journal of Film Studies and Tarkovsky, a collection of writings on the work of Russian filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky. In conjunction with his work at LAMAS he is currently writing a book that delineates the notion of space in the arts of architecture and film. Before founding LAMAS Macgillivray worked as a designer at Steven Holl Architects and as a project manager at Peter Gluck and Partners Architects where his project won the 2013 AIA Housing Award.

The Modernist Master: Michelangelo Antonioni series was co-organized by Camilla Cormanni and Paola Ruggiero, Luce Cinecittà. For more information, visit TIFF's website.
