MuMaBoX #61: Histories of Masks

By Marcos Ortega on Mié, 07/02/2018 - 08:51

These histories of masks begin with the nocturnal visit to the National Museum of Ethnology in the Netherlands filmed by Max de Haas in 1950 in Maskerage, impeccable on its form (first film score by Pierre Schaeffer), questionable on the content (colonialist hints) and ends with the sublime images shot in Mexico by Eisenstein during the Day of the Dead.

Between these two glances on the mask, some incarnations, simulacra and dissimulations, more or less serious games in which exhibition, grotesque and primitive violence are mixed.

Light Movement 13: Colour Spaces

By Marcos Ortega on Jue, 31/03/2016 - 15:05

Light Movement returns to Spektrum this month, and in more ways than one! Colour Spaces presents a collection of films in which colour is a key factor, either in forming the works concept, its formal structure, its depiction of space, or simply an atmosphere. This screening groups together a wide range of works by some incredible filmmakers and artists, all using colour in ways unique to their respective practices.

MuMaBoX #45: Mirror images

By Marcos Ortega on Jue, 18/02/2016 - 03:44

In an experimental approach to film, the mirror as a reflective device is used more in its concrete dimension that in the metaphorical: the mirror surface denounces the cinematographic transparency, the famous "window to the world" dear to André Bazin and manifests its power of illusion, infinitely poetic.

This programme will give rise to various speculations about the self-portrait, memory, landscape, but also on the presence of mirrors in Hollywood movies that reveals a double or the narcissistic staging full of doubts and anguish.

By Close-Up on Vie, 23/10/2015 - 07:48

Close-Up in collaboration with LUX and Camden Arts Centre, present the third part of a screening programme which expands on Ben Rivers’ exhibition Earth Needs More Magicians and his artist-curated exhibition Edgelands at the Camden Arts Centre.

The final part of the screening programme considers "ethnographies", a term often talked about in relation to Ben Rivers' films and the work of other experimental filmmakers including Chick Strand, Mark LaPore and Ben Russell, whose film in the programme was co-shot with Rivers and features the same footage used for Rivers's new film in the exhibition at Camden Arts Centre.

The Improbable Made Possible: A Displaced People

By Anonymous on Vie, 12/06/2015 - 10:27

The Improbable Made Possible is a roaming screening series that showcases contemporary avant-garde cinema, exposing the traditions of direct observation and speculative fiction. Since 2011, this annual initiative has invited recognized pioneers and emerging practitioners to partake in curated programs at renowned venues. Through projection and participation, it advances alternative modes of moving images and challenges the pursuits of those in attendance. Previous destinations include Anthology Film Archives, Antimatter Film Festival, UnionDocs and Spectacle Theater.

A Displaced People marks the fifth appearance of this series. It begins with a familiar farewell. A shared, secreted commute then makes way for apalpable, parading façade. The presence and absence of maternal lineage leads to depth defying processions. Celebrity personas, on stage and off, are soon re-imagined in séance fictions of disillusioned selves. Customs that challenge complacency on an isolated yet integrated island prophesy the occurrence of a cataclysm. Memoirs are finally transformed by means of tormented home video tapes and the nervous illness that follows, inside and out.
