Conjunto de obras recientes que reflexionan sobre la percepción y la interacción de las imágenes en el mundo contemporáneo, tanto en su impacto en la vida diaria como en el paisaje y la naturaleza. En un tiempo en que las pantallas se han vuelto omnipresentes y han creado un efecto significativo en el ecosistema, estas películas reflexionan sobre la colisión de las múltiples imágenes y espectadores que generan los dispositivos digitales al adentrarse en los espacios, tiñéndolos de azul.
Presented as part of Chicago Filmmakers’ special series of 50th Anniversary retrospective programming.
Chicago Filmmakers’ PerforMedia programming originated in the 1980’s as the groundbreaking “Time Arts” series. By bringing together artists across an eclectic spectrum of genres and disciplines, including film, video, music, performance art/theater, and poetry — converged or in tandem, this historic series helped to bring a new, broader audience to Chicago Filmmakers.
For the fourth consecutive year, the OBSKURA festival is launching its call for entries ! The festival will be held between the 3rd to 7th of July 2024 at the Théâtre National de Bretagne and La Parcheminerie, in Rennes, France. We wish to show films that elude common framework, play to our senses and reimagine reality through their formal expression. OBSKURA also explores other perceptions and narratives with film performances.
We are looking forward to your film proposals with enthusiasm !
