The cult cinema of the 81-year-old, Chilean-born filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky emerges from the underground at the Museum of Arts and Design this fall in its latest film series, running from September 23 - specially timed for the fall equinox - through October 8, 2010.

The six films showcased in 'Blood into Gold: the Cinematic Alchemy of Alejandro Jodorowsky' depict dream worlds, brimming with symbols and steeped in mysticism, floating and colliding with the Surrealist concepts of anarchy and randomness - filtered through the hazy, acid-colored lens of psychedelia. At once jarring, beautiful, baffling, alluring, and absurd, Jodorowsky's work pushes the medium's boundaries - provoking the audience's intellect, senses, and emotions. Abkco Music & Records joins MAD as the co-presenter of this series. The MAD Theater will screen six films from his oeuvre, including:

They write: 'A quick glance at shows opening in the coming months reveals a strong presence of contemporary writers. Pavel Pryazhko, Yury Klavdiyev, Ivan Vyrypayev and the Presnyakov brothers are all set with new productions of plays. There will also be plenty to choose from for those interested in the work of Russia's best directors. Valery Fokin, Yury Butusov, Genrietta Yanovskaya, Sergei Zhenovach and Robert Sturua are all on the verge of opening new productions.'
