  • Zen for Film

    How do works of art endure over time in the face of aging materials and changing interpretations of their meaning? How do decay, technological obsolescence, and the blending of old and new media affect what an artwork is and can become? And how can changeable artworks encourage us to rethink our assumptions of art as fixed and static? Revisions is a unique exploration of all of these questions.

  • Paracinema. La desmaterialización del cine en las prácticas artísticas

    ¿Cómo se presenta el cine en las prácticas artísticas cuando éste ha sido progresivamente despojado de su aparato tecnológico? ¿Es el cine una técnica o un método de asociación mental que estimula el pensamiento? Desde su mismo nacimiento, el cine se vio ceñido a una serie de normas y valores que le impedían expresar la naturaleza radical de sus potencias y, no obstante, unos cuantos visionarios han logrado extirparlo de su laberinto circular. No se trata de practicar una destrucción total del cine en todos los casos, sino de transformarlo en otras formas artísticas. Paracinema, en oposición al cine expandido, es la realización de la idea de cine a un nivel conceptual, experiencial y artístico. Se trata, en cualquier caso, de generar una experiencia cinemática desconectada, entera o parcialmente de su aparato tradicional.

  • Film als Idee: Birgit Heins Texte zu Film/Kunst

    Birgit Hein belongs to the filmmakers who have had a lasting influence on the history and the present scene of the experimental film. In addition to her films she wrote a number of critical texts that, since the 1970’s, helped to establish in the consciousness of a public, interested in art and film, the genre of experimental film. Birgit Hein argues that film work is impossible without a notion of the actual possibilities and purposes of the film medium, and that every single film project must be based on this general idea.

  • Du film performatif

    De nombreuses performances artistiques aujourd’hui se proposent de remplacer le film par son énoncé sous la forme d’une conférence illustrée ou d’une lecture. Des fragments d’un film à venir (photographies, documents, fragments de scénario) sont présentés en guise du film lui-même. On peut s’interroger sur ces nouveaux formats. De quoi sont-ils le symptôme ? S’agit-il d’un futur performatif du cinéma ?
