  • Oporto apresenta #24: Aleph

    By on

    Oporto apresenta #24: Aleph by Wallace BermanOporto apresenta #24: Aleph
    Wednesday, June 22, 2011, 22:30h
    Oporto, Salvador Correia de Sá, 42, 2 frente, 1200-399 Lisboa

    "Aleph" by Wallace Berman
    16mm film, color,silent, loop, 1956-1966

    Jorge Luis Borges describes the Aleph as a converging point of infinitude and simultaneous space, that he saw materialized on the 19th step of a staircase in an old building. In his description he mentions that this strange phenomenon can appear in other specific places.

    Oporto is fortunate to have the perfect conditions to host once again an Aleph.The present Aleph is a film by the American assemblage artist and publisher Wallace Berman. This film, done during a period of 10 years, is a concentrated poetic meditation on his time, life, influences and work. Structured on the Kabbalah, "Aleph" is simultaneously a cryptic beat trip into infinite time and space.

    "into the light of the endless loop" - Alexandre Estrela

  • Plenty: Joseph Cornell

    By on

    A Fable for Fountains (Joseph Cornell & Rudy Burckhardt, 1957)Plenty: Joseph Cornell
    Monday June 20th, 19h
    Event Gallery, 96 Teesdale Street, Bethnal Green, London, E2 9PU

    The aviary / Nymphlight / A fable for fountains
    Joseph Cornell & Rudy Burckhardt, USA, 1955-57, 16mm, b/w & colour, sound, 19 minutes

    A trilogy of films, united on a single reel, which offer a magical glimpse at New York long since passed. In each, a young woman drifts through the city’s streets and parks, embodying the artists’ distinctive qualities of melancholia and childlike wonder.

    “Joseph Cornell describes the marginal area where the conscious and the unconscious meet.” (P. Adams Sitney, Visionary Film)

    The artist Joseph Cornell (1903-72) is best known for his enigmatic box constructions. His films likewise used found materials, but on occasion he employed filmmakers Rudy Burckhardt, Stan Brakhage or Larry Jordan to photograph original footage under his direction.

    PLENTY is a free monthly screening series selected by Mark Webber, and forms part of the Brief Habits programme curated by Shama Khanna. Supported by Arts Council England.

    Z-Bar, Bergstraße 2, 10115 Berlin-Mitte

    FLEX: the Florida Experimental Film and Video Festival presents a program of highlights from their 2011 biennial competitive festival.  FLEX is interested in an expansive notion of experimental media. “Work may draw on documentary, animation, avant-garde, underground, or other traditions—-or no traditions at all.“ As such the programming comprises a variety of mediums from 16mm direct animation to found video and from laconic place studies to experimental love poems.
    Since its start in 2004, Flexfest has become one of the most important festivals for experimental media in USA, challenging us to rethink what 'experimental' means. Roger Beebe, who is the artistic director of Flexfest and who is currently teaching a 5 week workshop at LaborBerlin, will present the program. He was already a guest at Directors Lounge in 2009. Roger W. Beebe will be available for Q&A.

    The Florida Experimental Film/Video Festival presents both year-round programming and an annual festival (FLEXfest) in Gainesville, Florida.  Showcasing a broad range of experimental media, FLEXfest alternates a biennial competitive festival with a biennial curated event. Past FLEX guests have included Craig Baldwin, Jim Trainor, Helga Fanderl, Deborah Stratman, Ben Russell, Robert Todd, Leighton Pierce, Naomi Uman, Bill Brown, Scott Stark, Jacqueline Goss, Johan Grimonprez, Vanessa Renwick, and many others.
