The 2011 Cut and Run European Tour: Call for submissions and venues

By Marcos Ortega on Mié, 19/01/2011 - 14:52
Announcing Cut and Run’s 2011 Experimental European Tour – Call for Submissions – Call for Venue Proposals

Cut and Run began in early 2009 in San Francisco, as a single screening event at Artists’ Television Access. It has since evolved into an annual traveling film festival featuring Experimental and Avant-Garde cinema, featuring contemporary and past works.

C + R celebrates works that deviate from mainstream and traditional cinema, and opt towards authentic, brave, challenging, stylized, alternative and imagined subjects. The call for submissions has no direct set theme. The program themes develop around the sense we make of the selected works, as well as individual sought-out films that provoked and inspired us. In other words, our programs are inspired after we see your work.

Please send us your 25 min. or less piece on DVD or miniDV tape by mail. Contact us at [email protected] to obtain address info.

C + R is also accepting venue proposals for exhibitions for our European Tour. We are seeking venues overseas that are equipped for both Film and Video projection.

Evolution and Life of the Mind, Body, and Medium
Curated by Brenda Contreras and Mallary Abel

We are born, we grow, we experience a world of our own perceptions. We wonder who we’re becoming, we are influenced and we experiment. We become responsible for how we develop. We can change and reshape who we are and what we know by the powers we grant ourselves. This Cut and Run series focuses on cycles of minds, bodies, and filmstrips. Each work represents a perspective of itself as one, in contrast to others. Experience a cinematic evolution through cycles of the mind, body, and medium in this montage from filmmakers throughout the world.
