Al hilo de la reciente publicación de su ensayo Los pasadizos secretos para la colección «Breus del CCCB», la cineasta y programadora Elena Duque presenta un programa de animación experimental con piezas icónicas de diferentes estilos, épocas y procedencias, que dan una idea de la riqueza de este género.
In the early 1960ies, a number of filmmakers emerged in the United States and Europe to produce remarkable films that challenged any previous formal tendency in avant-garde filmmaking. The Structuralist filmmakers— including Peter Kubelka, Tony Conrad, Paul Sharits, and Kurt Kren––arranged their shots according to mathematical principles, attempting to produce non-narrative and non-illusionist films to oppose the cinematic apparatus.
Jodie Mack's films are some of the most fascinating experiments in animation today. Bringing together abstract colors and found objects, patterns of movement and a sense of time and loss, Mack's films burst with ideas and delights as they make us see the familiar world anew. This program of films features works from across her career. In Posthaste Perennial Pattern (2013), rapid-fire florals and morning bird songs bridge interior and exterior, design and nature.
Center Film Collection is the permanent exhibition of cutting-edge experimental films from around the world. All works have been approved by the artists, and we will gradually add more works to create this unique film collection in the world.
United by the experimental content they bring to the table, these change makers steer themselves according to the free interpretation they inspire in the eyes they prepare. If their aesthetic differs, they’ve still got the invitation for the journey in common. It’s not just about invoking the first and physical meaning of this movement, but rather letting yourself be guided by the call to the intrinsic feelings when each of us lets go.

El tejido y los estampados. Las postales y los carteles. Todo objeto con un atisbo de historia y color es motivo de una película fulgurante. La delicadeza se vuelve fiebre. De lo cotidiano saltan chispas. Además, esta sesión incluye una performance/karaoke en vivo. Ni un cubo de rubik tiene tanto color ni tantas posibilidades como el cine de Jodie Mack.

Edge of Frame and Close-Up are proud to present a two-part programme of films by highly acclaimed experimental animator Jodie Mack. Part one gathers a selection of shorts, illuminating formal and cursory elements shared between fine-art abstraction and mass-produced graphic design; whilst part two presents the UK premiere of her highly anticipated debut feature The Grand Bizarre. We’re thrilled that Jodie will be present throughout and will be in conversation following both screenings.
