El cine de Gregory J. Markopoulos

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 15/10/2018 - 06:32

Gregory J. Markopoulos (1928-92) fue uno de los cineastas más originales que surgió en la America de la postguerra. Sus películas abarcaron temas míticos, retratos y estudios de paisajes y arquitectura y han obtenido un reconocimiento muy amplio por su extraordinaria creatividad, el sensual uso del color y la innovación que representan en el uso de la forma cinemática. Por medio del uso de técnicas de montaje muy complejas y la superposición espontánea en cámara, buscó siempre la manera de liberar el misterio y energia que contiene un frame.

Soft Floor, Hard Film: Celebrating 50 Years of the London Film-Makers’ Co-op

By Marcos Ortega on Jue, 29/09/2016 - 07:29

Frieze Video and LUX present Soft Floor, Hard Film: 50 Years of the London Film-Makers’ Co-op.

Formed on October 13th 1968, the London Film-Makers’ Co-operative (LFMC) grew out of a series of screenings in the basement of counter-culture book store, Better Books, on Charing Cross road to become a pioneering organisation incorporating a film workshop, cinema space and distribution office. Radical in its early ideals, the Co-op played a crucial role in establishing moving image as an art form in the UK and internationally.

The 1960s and 1970s were a defining period for artists’ film and video, and the London Film-Makers’ Co-operative (LFMC) was one of the major international centres. Shoot Shoot Shoot documents the first decade of an artist-led organisation that pioneered the moving image as an art form in the UK, tracing its development from within London’s counterculture towards establishing its own identity within premises that uniquely incorporated a distribution office, cinema space and film workshop.

Peter Gidal: Flare Out

By Marcos Ortega on Mar, 29/03/2016 - 16:48

A screening of four films by Peter Gidal to celebrate the publication of “Flare Out: Aesthetics 1966–2016”, a collection of his essays on film, art and aesthetics. Gidal was a central figure during the formative years of the London Film-Makers’ Co-op and made some its most radical works. His cinema is anti-narrative, against representation and fiercely materialist, and his writings are similarly polemical and unique. This programme of films from the 1960s to the present includes his most recent work, and will be introduced by Mark Webber and Peter Gidal.
