from the Huffington Post:
“Kardish started out as a lowly curatorial assistant in 1968, but quickly made his mark on the institution through his breadth and depth of knowledge about film and the work of auteur filmmakers worldwide. He’s championed Weimar-era German films, 60s avant-garde productions, and French films from all eras, and was a part of the selection committee on the New Directors/New Films festival since its inception in 1972. He also co-wrote a book, titled, Weimar Cinema, 1919-1933: Daydreams and Nightmares to accompany a four month, 81-film program at MoMA in 2010.”
