Author of Shot to Death: How and Why Karl Krogstad Makes Films
Thursday evening, December 3 @ 7 p.m.
Olympic Room, Main Library
1102 Tacoma Avenue South
Over the course of his long career, legendary Seattle film artist Karl Krogstad has produced and directed more than 65 short and feature-length films, and has been honored with 30 awards from international film festivals. “Love him or hate him, there’s no denying the artistic imperative that drives his vision of experimental cinema,” says Seattle Weekly. According to Resonance Magazine, “the 54-year-old artist is irrepressible, annoying, P.T. Barnum and a self induced maniac.” Rolling Stone Magazine described Krogstad as "one of America’s greatest independent filmmakers.”
