CINÉ PLUTO, a microcinema created by parents of artist Avery Singer, Greg Singer and Janet Kusmierski, first launched as an invite-only experience in the artist couple’s downtown New York City loft in 1998. 

For the second iteration of our new quarterly film series at Hauser & Wirth 18th Street, the long-standing salon-style series returns with an evening of campy, bloody Halloween hilarity.

The evening will include Roger Corman’s feature ‘A Bucket of Blood,’ an assemblage of spooky short films screened on vintage View-Master, 16mm, 8mm and Super 8 projectors, and a new video installation by Janet Kusmierski with music by Calder Singer.
