Marie Losier is the most effervescent and psychologically accurate portrait artist working in film today. Her films wriggle with the energy and sweetness of a broken barrel full o' sugar worms!!!! No one makes pictures like Marie, Edith Sitwell's inner Tinkerbell !!!!!!! Guy Maddin-2008 Marie Losier's movies are as sweet and sassy as her name and well worth a gander or goose by all off beat cineastes. So beat off to a different drum and marvel at the wad of wonders that only a French woman could generate. Take a trip down a sprocketed spiral of celluloid strips into a glory hole of impressive dimensions. What pops through will surely enlarge with persistent, ocular manipulations. George Kuchar-2008 "I set with a smile on my face. I wish there were more people like the character in your films, in the world. It takes you on a ride that weaves the real and surreal." Charles Burnett-2006 Marie Losier, born in France in 1972, is a filmmaker and curator working in New York C ity. She has shown her films and videos at museums, galleries, biennials and festivals. She studied literature at the University of Nanterre (France) and Fine Art in New York City. She has made a number of film portraits on avant-garde directors, musicians and composers such as Mike and George Kuchar, Guy Maddin, Richard Foreman, Tony Conrad and Genesis P-Orridge. Whimsical, poetic, dreamlike and unconventional, her films explore the life and work of these artists. Her films are regularly shown at prestigious art and film festivals and museums, such as The Tate Modern, the Whitney Biennial, PS1, MOMA, The Berlin Film Festival, The International Film Festival Rotterdam, Tribeca Film Festival, The Cinemathèque Francaise and the Centre George Pompidou in Paris... She was also included in the 2006 Whitney Biennial (Whitney Museum, NY) .

The work in progress was presented in 2009 at The Centre George Pompidou in April to open "Hors Pistes" as well as at the Cinemathèque Francaise in Paris in September.
