No Future - Short films about Tomorrow

By Marcos Ortega on Thu, 18/04/2024 - 12:03

The future cannot be predicted, but that is no reason not to try experimental film: reflections on 16mm, video and in 3D about the experience of time, the play with expectations and the desire to “see in a new way” develop. 'No Future' is dedicated to various facets of the future from the 1920s to the present 2020s.

Program curated by Karola Gramann, Heide Schlüpmann and Björn Schmitt. As part of the 17th LICHTER Filmfest

Inner Distances

Curated by Amanda VanValkenburg

This screening is curated around work that examines how technology affects sense of place and sense of self. Relationships to location becomes abstracted through the mediation of devices. The internet creates familiar landing sites, social media pages become extensions of identity, and google maps can be used to explore topographically accurate recreations of locations around the world. Sense of place is an abstraction of location navigated by information, senses, and physical stimulus

X-Ray: Space

By Anonymous on Wed, 30/11/2016 - 03:09

In this third installment of the X-Ray series hosted by the Department of Media Art of Ghent's Royal Academy of Fine Arts (KASK), guest curator Sebastian Buerkner (UK) together with Courtisane personally presents a program featured around spatiality.

Buerkner's computer animated work guides us through an ambiguous universe of abstract interiors, stylized forms and fluid color fields. He situates his films Triband and The Chimera of M within an experimental context that misleads viewers in its spatiality, with work by Ken Jacobs (Capitalism: Slavery), Blake Williams (Red Capriccio), Takashi Ito (Spacy) and Alexandre Larose (Brouillard Passage #14).

Magasinet Walden: Mary Helena Clark

By Marcos Ortega on Fri, 27/11/2015 - 04:05

Magasinet Walden presents a screening dedicated to the work of Mary Helena Clark. Born in 1983, for 10 years she has produced a wealth of substantial works. Her films are characterized by an unusual dualistic approach where a rigorous formalist work, which spins further on the structuralist film's ideas and practices, combines with an interest in magic and illusionism. We show Clark's overall filmography, together with Robert Breer's Breathing (1963) and Blake Williams' Something Horizontal (2015), two films that Clark has chosen to include in the programme.

Dates:
Wednesday, December 2, 2015 - 19:00 to Thursday, December 3, 2015 - 18:55
Venue:
Swedish Film Institute - Stockholm, Sweden
