Beyond the Surface

By Anonymous on Vie, 16/10/2015 - 03:47

From October 19th to 24th - 2015 Labor Neunzehn proudly presents the film screening programme Beyond the surface.

International artists have been invited to contribute their films to create different ways of perceiving, transforming, articulating, deconstructing the subtext that triggers the title of this series. The things of the world are not represented by our minds at any given moment, and usually their life is not accessible to us, but hidden, concealed, or withdrawn. Whether we stay, go beyond or beneath, we are moving around the surface, by a language of desire and suppression that turns the interiority inside-out and inflects the outward forms in a moltitude of facets. From the RGB screen in itself to precise political and postcolonial contexts, from war to entertainment, from dream to vision, we come across the surface. A concealing-movement that will be fulfilled optically, and with a self-published catalogue, distributed in occasion of the event.

Filmadrid 2015

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 01/06/2015 - 17:36

Filmadrid International Film Festival (5 al 13 de junio, Madrid) es un festival neonato con la "determinación de descubrir senderos inéditos y novedosos dentro del paisaje cinematográfico contemporáneo". Como tal, en su primerísima edición ya presenta un compromiso muy fuerte con el cine experimental. En su sección competitiva de vanguardia participan dieciocho obras, largos y cortos, con piezas de Basma Alsharif, Laida Lertxundi, Juan Daniel F. Molero, Pablo Marín y Aura Satz, entre otros. Cuatro 'programas invitados' complementan la sección de vanguardias, con un programa de cortos animados de no ficción comisariado por Elena Duque ('La imagen faltante'); un programa comisariado por Albert Alcoz y Alberto Cabrera Bernal, cineastas y editores del sello de DVD Angular, quienes además presentarán su primer lanzamiento; una sesión dedicada al veterano cineasta Adolpho Arrietta; y una serie de piezas sobre los poeemas del escritor gallego Xosé María Díaz Castro titulado 'Proxecto Nimbos'. La sección Vanguardias Live reta a diversos creadores a realizar obras performativas en nuevas maneras en las que no hayan pensando o trabajado antes; esta edición incluirá performances de Juan Barrero, Lois Patiño y Salomé Lamas.

Basma Alsharif: Doppelgänging

By Marcos Ortega on Vie, 18/04/2014 - 04:20

Basma Alsharif in person!

Basma Alsharif’s sharp, seductive films have often been informed by Palestine’s history, its contemporary political situation, and the conflicted experiences of those who call it home (whether or not they live there). She returns to CATE with a collection of recent films that explore bilocation—the act of being in multiple places at once—a state of being she uses to describe Palestinian identity, as well as cinema itself. The program offers the possibility of bilocating through the visceral experience of drone-glitched TV and teenage cello lessons in Home Movies Gaza (2013); a rhyming exercise in the Panathenaic Stadium in Girls Only (2014); a stroboscopic oral history in Farther Than the Eye Can See (2012); and a hypnosis-inducing pan-geographic shuttle in Deep Sleep (2014), a film/performance. Presented in collaboration with the Video Data Bank.
