Artist in attendance

Vancouver-based media artist Chris Welsby emerged in 1970s as a major figure in the experimental cinema scene in the UK where he was associated with the London Filmmakers’ Co-op. Welsby developed a unique process of filmmaking in which the interaction between cinematic apparatus and various forces of nature became an important determinant of the shape of his films.

This program surveys Welsby’s outstanding achievements in landscape film during this period, including much-acclaimed Seven Days and River Yar, which was co-made with William Raban, one of the foremost proponents of British expanded cinema. Welsby makes his first appearance in Montreal with this retrospective.

A Shroud to Hold the Light: films by John Price

Filmmaker In Person

In a career spanning over two decades, Toronto-based filmmaker John Price has created an impressive body of work in 16mm and 35mm. Price’s remarkably prolific creative output places him among the finest voices working today in the tradition of diaristic filmmaking.

An avid chronicler of the quotidian, Price documents the intimate details of his personal life. His careful observation captures precious moments of domestic events – the birth of his child (naissance #1), family trips and Thanksgiving celebrations (Party #4, Camp #2), the growth of his children (domashnyee kino / home movie). The episodic fragments he collects often form a series of thematically linked vignettes (Sea Series #5, #7, #8 and #11), and one of the pleasures his films offer derives from viewing them in ensemble rather than in isolation.

His films, however, extend far beyond the simple memorialization of the everyday; they also foreground his engagement in aesthetic experimentation with light, colour, grains and textures, functioning as the records of the filmmaker’s meditation on the medium he chooses to work with. His filmmaking grew out of his early interest in traditional darkroom photography. The tactile experience of working with physical material constitutes the essential part of his craft. Experimenting with unconventional processing techniques that produce unpredictable photochemical reactions on the fragile emulsion, Price creates images that have unique tonal and textural qualities, imbued with timeless beauty and quiet lyricism.

O’ via pastrengo 12, milano isola

For its third installment, Atelier Impopulaire presents a selection of the works by the collective of canadian filmmakers and visual artists Double Negative Collective, presented by Philippe Léonard. Since its inception in 2004, the Double Negative Collective has become a major presence in today’s experimental cinema scene in Montreal, Canada. Its inique existence has had an undeniable impact on the shifting landscape of moving-image art in the local community. Self-financed, the Double Negative Collective has succeeded for over eight years to maintain its own studio with a variety of analogue filmmaking equipment, as well as organize experimental film screenings, performances and artist talks that continue to inspire the artistic communities both at home and abroad.

Curated by Pia Bolognesi and Giulio Bursi

Double Negative Collective: Parataxis

By Marcos Ortega on Mié, 09/12/2009 - 02:32
The Double Negative Collective presents a selection of recent experimental films and videos by Montreal filmmakers at Cinéma Parallèle.

* Thursday 17 Dec. 2009, 21h30
* Cinéma Parallèle [3536 Boul. St-Laurent, Montreal, QC]

Parataxis is the juxtaposition of dissimilar images or fragments in language, creating new meaning with the odd pairing. In cinema, filmmakers usher in many surprising marriages of visual and sonic ideas with each depression of the splicer, as many curators articulate new meanings in a varied program of film and video work. With this program, the Double Negative Collective presents a selection of recent experimental films and videos by Montreal filmmakers at Cinéma Parallèle.

The One Take Super 8 Event (OTS8) began in 2000, with 20 filmmakers each shooting a single reel of Super 8 film, which then premiered to an audience without the filmmakers seeing their work beforehand. All the films were shown as shot. No cuts. No splices. The popularity of this non-competitive festival has allowed it to return each year with more filmmakers participating. To date over 600 films have been created for the One Take Super 8 Event!

FNC Lab: Sines and Wonders

By Marcos Ortega on Vie, 25/09/2009 - 03:35
SATURDAY OCTOBER 10TH, 11PM

at the Agora Hydro-Québec du Coeur des Sciences de l'UQÀM- 175 President Kennedy (Montreal)

SINES AND WONDERS -

audio and visual performances by: Nicole Lizée, Lynne Trépannier, Patti Schmidt, Double Negative, Kara Blake

If the Doctor Who theme music sent you running behind the sofa as a child, you are already familiar with the work of Delia Derbyshire. An innovator in sound creation and manipulation during the 1960s, Derbyshire has emerged as a singular pioneer in the field of electronic music. In conjunction with the Montréal première of The Delian Mode, this event presents a night of sound and image in the spirit of Derbyshire’s dedication to forging new frontiers through experimentation.

Echoing Derbyshire’s atypical approach to audio, Montreal-based composer Nicole Lizée, creates orchestral arrangements using unorthodox instrumentation such as karaoke tapes, video game consoles and turntables. For this special event, Lizée will splice together analog and digital techniques in a unique live ensemble performance.

Lynne Trépanier, frontwoman of Montréal’s Lesbians on Ecstasy, explores sonic territory as a sound recordist and recently as sound designer for The Delian Mode. Lynne T, on DJ duty with Patti Schmidt (the familiar voice behind CBC’s Brave New Waves) will trace a trajectory of electronic music from the early 1960’s to today.

Celluloid aberrations and visual amusements will be concocted by The Delian Mode director Kara Blake in collaboration with Montréal’s Double Negative Collective.”

Sines and Wonders is presented by the Festival du nouveau cinema (FNC Lab) in partnership with Vidéographe
