  • CINE-REBIS, The London Undergrund Film Festival

    By on

    CINE-REBIS (The London & Porto Underground Film Festivals) is a film festival that celebrates the art of cinema. Showing a selection of short and feature-length films from around the globe, our aim is to show work that expresses originality and creativity and that is truly independent in form, content and spirit. We are interested in films that challenge, expand and explore what cinema is, and could be.

    We have lots of exciting films lined up for you this year, including some special events like an evening of poetry and films by the great British artist Jeff Keen, hosted by his daughter and collaborator Stella Keen, a screening and discussion of It Is Not the Homosexual Who Is Perverse But the Society in Which He Lives, presented by One+One Filmmakers Journal, a talk about Jonas Mekas’ first visit to England and the relationships between British and American underground film in the 60′s by William Fowler from the BFI, and an evening of insane and unrestrained trash movies with American filmmaker Kelly Hughes, who will be joining us to present two films, La Cage Aux Zombies: Director’s Cut and Heart Attack!. Alongside all of this, we have a selection of exciting, new shorts and features selected from this year’s submissions plus lots more!

  • Millennium Film Journal No. 58 Screening and Celebration

    By on

    Celebrating the longevity of the Millennium Film Journal, and the publication of MFJ 58. With Grahame Weinbren, Kenneth White, and Erica Levin and works by Jean Vigo, Elisa Giardina Papa, Omer Fast and Natalie Bookchin.

    MFJ No. 58 "Since 78" is the 35th Anniversary Edition. It highlights the artists’ cinema and its developments during the 35 years of the MFJ’s publication. It is a double-sized issue, giving a unique portrait of three and a half decades, during which time we moved from the black box to the white cube, from film to digital media, from the inside of the museum onto the walls of the museum, and from the big screen to the tiny screen — while never giving up the earlier forms.

    MFJ 58 includes 22 texts by the leading writers in the field and 24 pages of color images, including frame enlargements, installation shots and much more.

  • Christoph Girardet & Matthias Müller - Tell Me What You See

    By on

    Christoph Girardet and Matthias Müller predominately make use of found footage in their films which they combine to produce new works. Their dealings with the media of film come together in intense combinations of images and film collages that unfold new layers of meaning.

    Locomotive from 2008, a fast-moving video triptych comprising scene showing railway trains taken from hundreds of movies, came about in this manner. Departure and arrival, endings and new beginnings, exoticism and the thrill of adventure interlock are condensed into an exciting new narrative.

    Meteor from 2011 is a filmic metaphor for childhood desire and imagination. Assembled from movies, uprooted fragments from fairy tales and old science fiction material, Meteor stages the imaginary world of the child at the threshold of self-discovery and disentanglement. Black and white excerpts of aggressive, fearful or languorous boys from films by Jean Vigo, Ingmar Bergman or François Truffaut merge with glowingly colorful images of rockets speeding through outer space or cosmic objects from the genre of science fiction.

  • Cine de Exposición: Instalaciones fílmicas de Andrés Denegri

    By on

    Cine de Exposición es un conjunto de ocho instalaciones de Andrés Denegri, que sitúan el aparato fílmico en el centro de la escena de arte, tanto por su función específica de proyectar y por las imágenes resultantes, como también por el valor escultórico de las máquinas 35 mm, 16 mm y Super 8. Así es como la escena cinematográfica se instala temporalmente en el espacio de arte como una forma de pensamiento sobre el quehacer cinematográfico, las imágenes técnicas y el autorretrato documental.

  • Spectacle of Light and Languages

    By on

    Microscope Gallery welcomes Philadelphia-based film and video artist Peter Rose for “Spectacle of Light and Languages”, a comprehensive screening of his works in film and video since the 70s, including the premiere of his latest short Solaristics and footage from new 3D works-in-progress.

    A mathematical training underlies Rose’s early structural films, where quick cuts and superimposed images form the basis of a kinesthetic exploration of space, time, light and perception. Lyricism and a persistent attempt at breaking down language and meaning continue to guide the artist’s later works, in a personal and uncompromising search for transcendence.

    Peter Rose will be in attendance to introduce the screening and available afterwards for Q&A.

  • Directors Lounge Screening: Gabriel Lyons Loeb - Poems & Trampolines

    By on

    Gabriel Lyons Loeb is in love with pixelation and other digital artifacts as other artists are with the “Wabisabi” of Super-8, and the illuminating technical flaws of “spaghetti-style” developed small gauge film. For years now, he has used an old mobile phone camera to explore his surroundings and the media. He combines his poetry with video “blow-ups”, either coming from his own footage or from footage appropriated from the internet. One may ask if it is his love for a specific aesthetic, or if it is an artistic-bohemian gesture to use the cheapest material and a look that we usually regard as an internet-related shortcoming. It may be both, however, there may be a third motivation: in his final years at university he studied the effects of endless repetitions of footage he found on youtube and other transformative experiments, mainly by exposing himself. As earlier avant-gardists and pop-Artists such as Bruce Conner and Andy Warhol already found out, repetitions have a changing effect on our cognition and psyche.

  • Guy Sherwin - 11 films from 'Short Film Series'

    By on

    Projection Rooms is pleased to be screening a programme of 11 films from 'Short Film Series' by Guy Sherwin between the hours of 12 and 4.30pm on Saturday 30th November and Sunday 1st. The work is part of an ongoing film project by Guy Sherwin which began in 1975. '

    The series is held together by certain formal considerations: each film is three minutes long, i.e. the length of a roll of 16mm film, all films are b/w and silent, and the order in which they are shown is flexible. Apart from this there is a range of imagery from portraiture to still life to travel. The films operate on the border between movement and stillness, revealing their inner logic through an active engagement in looking. For the exhibition I have made two DVDs from the 16mm originals, one with 5 films and the other with 6 films. Thus the connections between the films are always changing. A DVD of 34 films from Short Film Series is in production with LUX, to be released late 2013'. - Guy Sherwin
