TICKETS + INFORMATION

In their Look Out Sh!^thead! series — the first two episodes were of necessity streamed (and they made quite compelling use of that medium, too) — Object Collection takes off from Éric Rohmer’s Comédies et Proverbes cycle about love and desire (and morality). I love Éric Rohmer and I love Object Collection — but it’s hard to think of two esthetics more dissimilar than Rohmer’s cool talky minimalism and Object Collection’s antic theatrical maximalism. Which may be why the first two episodes produced such a piquant frisson.
