‘These short films, simple and sensuous as Haiku poems, are early works of this pioneer West Coast film-maker who was the co-founder with Bruce Baillie of Canyon Cinema in San Francisco and later, after her marriage with cartoon artist Neon Park, moved to Los Angeles to help form the film-makers’ Co-operative there. Although trained as an anthropologist and ethnographer (c.f. Anselmo’s folk dance documentation) her interest in cinema is primarily in the abstract and kinetic visual phenomena that are inherent in film, such as positive-negative juxtapositions, chirality, flickers, etc…’ – William Moritz.Four Films On One Reel:KULU SE MAMA, 1966, 3 mins, ‘In celebration of movement.’ – C.S.WATERFALL, 1967, 3 mins.ANSELMO, 1967, 4 mins., ‘Shot on Mexico, celebration of magic and tubes.’ – C.S.ANGEL BLUE SWEET WINGS, 1967, 4 mins., ‘A film in celebration of life.’ – C.S.
