P. Adams Sitney, longtime The Cooper Union professor (1944-2025)

Painful news. P. Adams came to Bard College in 1971 and essentially presented his seminal work on American avant-guard cinema, Visionary Film, in a seminar he taught, that I was fortunate enough to sit in on. To say that he changed my life is a drastic understatement.
