    When I started making films in the 1980s I was part of a thriving artist community in Frankfurt/Main. There was a lot of controversy about Peter Kubelka, the influential and eccentric teacher of film and cooking at the “Städel”, Frankfurt’s art academy. We had excellent programmers at the Filmmuseum and a regular “Avantgarde & Experiment” series. Our discussions reached beyond Kluge and Adorno and for many the American avantgarde was existential.

    This program collects some highlights from that period and later years. The first part spins around urban topics, extended into outer space and rooted back to the woods. The second part diversifies the use of found footage, respectively found clothes and sounds.

    All films (originally 16mm/35mm) are shown on DVD and have never been presented in the US (very few exceptions), despite awards and glory at the homebase.

    Video and Film Works by Riccardo Iacono
    Thursday, 23 September 2010, 21h
    Z-Bar, Bergstraße 2, 10115 Berlin-Mitte

    Riccardo Iacono, London-based artist and filmmaker, presents a selection of films and video from three different bodies of work: abstract videos, hand-painted films and performance tapes (produced between 1993-2007).

    “The title of the programme has nothing to do with the works that will be screening, I just found it interesting” — his statement already shows a quality also to be found in his work; with a gentle sarcasm, he likes to confront prejudices with opposing strategies. The trained painter (Glasgow School of Art) found his way to 16mm film through video collaborations with musicians both in contemporary Musique Concr ète and rave events. ”A major influence on my early work was William Burroughs' Electronic Revolution (1970), which discusses the use of recording, looping and feedback to stimulate and escalate riots.”… “I began making abstract hand-painted films in 1993, following a screening of Stan Brakhage and Pat O'Neil films on Television. I started to read books by Brakhage, but there were limited resources for seeing artists' moving image works in Glasgow back in the late 80's.”

  • UBS 12 x 12 Artist Talk: Ben Russell

    This Is My Land (Ben Rivers, 2006)UBS 12 x 12 Artist Talk: Ben Russell
    Tuesday, September 14, 2010, 18h
    MCA Theater, Free
    220 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611, USA

    As part of his UBS 12 x 12 artist's talk, Ben Russell presents films from his past curated programs in order to expand on themes that lie within his newest work, Trypps #7 (Badlands). "From early cinema to psychedelic mind-melt, ethnographic study to hand-processed portrait, and occult attraction to aquatic flicker film, this is a media map of analog influence that locates curatorial practice as a critical component to art-making today." - Ben Russell
