Punto y Raya Festival explores the ultimate synthesis of the form·movement duality in different spheres of human endeavour. Due to the simplicity of its criteria, it seeks to reveal the limitations and achievements of our representation systems using abstraction's prime matter.

This entry call is addressed to audiovisual pieces built up entirely from dots and lines. No representation whatsoever, just dots and lines as ends in themselves!

Chicago Filmmakers: Punto y Raya festival

"Punto y Raya" Animation Festival
Friday, February 25, 2011, 20h
Chicago Filmmakers
5423 N.Clark Street, Chicago, IL 60640, USA

Based in Barcelona, Spain, Punto y Raya has taken on the mantle “most abstract in the world” by exclusively showcasing 2D animation made up entirely of dots, lines, and flat backgrounds. This “back to basics” approach has challenged filmmakers and abstract artists to find freedom and expression within stringent limitations, and the results are fantastic. In 2009, submissions came from 37 countries, 80% of them created specifically for the festival. This program consists of 16 semi-finalist, finalist and awarded films from 2009, plus two shorts by renowned abstract artist Larry Cuba, whose work was presented in a retrospective at Punto y Raya in 2010. (1978-79, 2007-09, total running time 76 min.)
