Art Cinema OFFoff presents a 16mm open-air program of five films in the outdoor theater of the Citadelpark. This free evening is part of Publiek Park – a four-day open-air exhibition (July 1-4), organized by the Young Friends v/h S.M.A.K., which brings together visual art, performance, music and cinema at the crossroads of culture, nature and heritage.
Microscope is very pleased to present True Fairy Tales, an online screening program of works in video, film, stop motion animation, 3D animation, AI, and augmented reality by Kenneth Anger, Tessa Hughes-Freeland, Tomi Omololu-Lange, Jonas Mekas, Michelle Nguyen, Anne Spalter, Ziyang Wu, and Ezra Wube centered around the topic of fairytales.
As an extension of her exhibition at Matadero's Nave 0, Cineteca hosts AR, FOGO, TERRA, ÁGUA, a carte blanche in which the Brazilian artist Ana Vaz (Brasilia, 1986) puts her own work in dialogue with a personal history of cinema in which claims a poetic-physics of impurity. From Bruce Baillie to Toshio Matsumoto, through the new Latin American cinemas and the North American avant-garde, Vaz invites us on an elementary journey - air, fire, earth, water - for a personal and political, artistic and ethnographic cinema.

In this session, in the framework of the exhibition "1,000 m2 of Desire. Architecture and Sexuality", we see three essential pieces of US experimental film.
