Four Evenings of Films

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 14/12/2015 - 18:51

Index and Film i Samtidskonsten present a joint series of four evenings of experimental films at Index' gallery. The programs have been developed as an extension of the most recent issue of the cultural magazine OEI #69-70: On film, published in autumn 2015, with 496 pages about significant practices of the Swedish experimental film scene. The events are organized as part of the decentral festival Kortfilmsdagen on December 21, supported by the Swedish Film Institute.

Curated by Martin Grennberger and Daniel A. Swarthnas, the program shows a selection of important Swedish experimental films, contextualized by works of international film practitioners. Several of the films are being shown for the first time in Sweden.

First Thought, Best Thought: A Compendium of Camera Roll Films

By Marcos Ortega on Vie, 20/11/2015 - 06:29

Using a single hundred-foot roll of 16mm film to create an unedited camera-roll film -- fresh from the lab and onto the screen -- has a certain appeal to me. Partly it’s the practical aspect of DIY efficacy that comes with circumventing the costly steps of post-production. With editing there is something diluted from this raw power of the pure, unadulterated footage, no matter how masterfully the material is pruned and refashioned. Perhaps the phrase of Allen Ginsberg, Chogyam Trungpa, and others, “First thought, best thought” expresses this energy present in the camera-roll film?

L’Âge d’Or 2015

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 21/09/2015 - 10:18

Belgian experimental film festival L’Âge d’Or comes back next October 3-10 with the second edition of its new run. 2015 celebrates the 50th anniversary of Super 8 and so for its second edition, the Âge d’Or festival has chosen to pay homage to the work of the fiercest advocates of this format, too often denigrated and considered ‘amateur’. A format however that has been, and sometimes still is, the terrain of innovative cinematic experiments, full of the constraints that only it can create.

MuMaBoX #40: Palingenesis. The rebirth of Nature

By Marcos Ortega on Sáb, 09/05/2015 - 12:17

The palingenesis means regeneration after an apparent death. In cinema, the rebirth of nature may appear in the pattern, the shape of the film or the image itself. For example in the return of vegetation among the ruins and trauma of History (Resnais, Pollet, Herzog).

Early Monthly Segments #71: Takashi Ito + Rose Lowder + Paul Sharits

By Marcos Ortega on Sáb, 07/03/2015 - 07:24

To celebrate our sixth anniversary we’ve assembled an evening of determined visual magic, radical geometry and single frame exaltation. Takashi Ito’s sublime Spacy uses the Droste effect (or mise-en-abyme), to turn 700 photographs of a gymnasium into a glorious ten-minute kinetic voyage. Paul Sharits’s seminal Ray Gun Virus is a colour field flicker film that offers a visceral palette of sensory pleasures. Rose Lowder’s Scenes de la vie francaise: La Ciotat is from her four-part series “Scenes de la vie francaise” which references the Lumieres and shows two versions of the same scene, shot frame by frame acutely examining the impact of scale, duration and time. La Ciotat features animated landscapes of the port, dry docks, shipyard workers, launched tankers, fishermen and the beach, showing us contrasting views of the Cote d’Azur port city with graceful perception.

Fabriques du Cinéma Expérimental
Comment vivent et travaillent, à l' «ère du numérique», les cinéastes expérimentaux? Qu’en est-il de leur attachement à la matérialité de l'objet-film? Quels sont leurs outils, leurs rapports à la création, leurs manières de penser, de fabriquer et d'habiter les images et les sons? Comment financent-ils leurs projets? Quel regard portent-ils sur leur parcours et sur les mutations décisives que connait aujourd'hui le cinéma, y compris «expérimental», envisagé dans sa dimension esthétique, pratique, technique, économique et institutionnelle?

Entretiens avec Martin Arnold, Frédérique Devaux, Olivier Fouchard, Ken Jacobs, Christian Lebrat, Rose Lowder, Nicolas Rey, Silvi Simon, José Antonio Sistiaga.

Under the Sun: The Films of Rose Lowder

By Marcos Ortega on Vie, 10/01/2014 - 03:50

Brimming with vibrant images of blossoms, orchards, insects and meadows, the works of celebrated filmmaker Rose Lowder explore our relation with and impact on the world. Rare gems selected by Lowder will be shown alongside key works from one of the most distinct bodies of work in French experimental cinema. Grounded in her interest in radical agriculture, colour theory and the landscapes of her adoptive home in the south of France, Lowder is committed to filmmaking as an ecological practice inseparable from her lifelong collecting and championing of non-commercial cinema. Trained as a painter and sculptor in Lima, Peru, and London, Lowder turned to filmmaker in 1977 after studying with Jean Rouch.

Her engagement with ways of living and filming will be explored alongside the meticulous design, composition and production of her films. The screenings will be introduced and followed by conversations with the artist.

HASENHERZ N° 10: Rose Lowder

HASENHERZ N° 10: Rose Lowder
Saturday, April 13 2013, 11h
Kulturzentrum bei den Minoriten
Mariahilferplatz 3, 8020 Graz, Austria

Born in 1941, french experimental filmmaker Rose Lowder is considered as one of the most influential European figures in experimental film. Starting as a painter and sculptor, studies took her to Lima and London. After many years of work as an editor at the BBC she intensely turned towards experimental filmmaking in 1976. In 1987 she presented some of her work as her thesis The experimental film as an instrument towards visual research. Along these lines she investigates her environment and its perception with a scientific view, using cinematographic tools.

In 2012 artists Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond start their series HASENHERZ. Imagine the format the following way: International artists are being shown. Duration: Approximately one hour. In the style of Schönberg's Association for private musical performance (founded in 1918) the concept of wanting to understand the new, is now transferred to the medium of experimental film and lyricism:The movies on display are being repeated and in between screenings they are discussed.The same form of presentation applies to readings. As it was the goal of the format`s model “to provide artists and art lovers with a real and profound knowledge of modern music“, similiar should be achieved for the experimental film/video and lyricism. If the artists whose work is being shown, are not present, they can be cut into the discussion via skype or telephone.
