  • VISIONS presents Lucie Lambert + Tao Gu

    By on

    Lucie Lambert was born on the Côte-Nord where she spent her childhood between the river and the forest. She is particularly interested in documentary that confounds all rules and categories. Paysage sous le paupières, Avant le jour and Le père de Gracile, her three major films, form a trilogy that weaves together territory and the imaginary.

    GU Tao (China) was born in Wenchuan, in the Sichuan Province. From 2004 to 2007 he studied at the Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema, Concordia University in Montreal. After going to Canada his cinematic work shifted towards experimental filmmaking. He also worked as editor for The Vanishing Spring Light (2011) by his fellow countryman Xun Yu.

  • Xcèntric: Films confesionales. Joe Gibbons

    By on

    En junio de 2015, Joe Gibbons, cineasta y exprofesor del MIT, fue enviado a prisión tras ser declarado culpable de robar un banco: su única arma era una cámara de vídeo con la que quería documentar los robos para una obra artística en proceso. Durante cuatro décadas, Joe Gibbons ha efectuado un cine de provocación, tomando su propia vida como laboratorio experimental en una mezcla cómica y reflexiva de autobiografía y fantasía, autorretrato y performance. En su obra más celebrada, Confessions of a Sociopath —escogida por Artforum y Film Comment entre las mejores del año—, analiza sus tendencias autodestructivas a partir de material recopilado durante treinta años, y en Confidential Part 2 confiesa sus remordimientos por el modo en que rodó, con una cámara super-8, su film voyerista Spying.

  • A Matter of Visibility: International Avant-Garde and Artists’ Cinema

    By on

    Introduced by guest curator Mónica Savirón.

    This program presents new experimental films and videos not yet shown in New York, in conversation with rarely seen works by avant-garde masters such as Lis Rhodes and Chantal Akerman. These artistic views have the ability to enhance our perception through symbolism, transformation, and a keen sense of creative freedom. By shifting cinematic, private, gendered, financial, and geographical priorities, what is usually absent becomes present. These works are meditations on the act of looking, visual poems in which imposed narratives get rejected or argued against. Words, forms, and depictions of any kind are broken apart to explore and expose the language of cinema. For these artists, making films is like “writing on burning paper” (Pier Paolo Pasolini, Heretical Empiricism, 1967).

  • Light Movement 10: Jayne Parker

    By on

    "Jayne Parker's films, videos, photographs and installations reveal a central core of concerns that are explored in many ways. Her hallmark is the focussed gaze of the camera on the body and its actions, combined with editing that draws out inner rhythms from the shot to mould an unfamiliar sense of time. A running theme is the making of art and the production of selfhood, mirrored in the performance itself and in the formal shape of the film. By embracing such nonverbal arts as music and dance, meaning in the films is produced - and questioned - by the clash or fusion of images seen from changing viewpoints and angles." (A.L.Rees)

  • VISIONS 12|15: Stephen Connolly | Itinerant Spaces

    By on

    VISIONS presents: Itinerant Spaces - The films of Stephen Connolly

    Stephen Connolly’s work falls within the tradition of artists’ cinematic exploration of landscapes with a twist - his camera is interested in following the infrastructure of places to reveal their political plasticity. The work, shot on 16mm and more recently on digital, engages with the motion of people and places as metaphors for social forces slowing into form.
