Xcèntric: Escenas de la vida de Mary Shelley
Domingo 16 de diciembre 2012, 18:30h
Xcèntric CCCB, Montalegre, 5, 08001 Barcelona
Filmada en Italia con actores no profesionales, A Shape of Error es un largometraje experimental basado en los diarios de Mary Shelley, autora de Frankenstein, y su hermanastra Claire, dos mujeres emancipadas para su época. Con la apariencia de una película familiar, Abigail Child cuenta su historia, centrándose especialmente en la apasionada relación amorosa de Mary y Percy Shelley, apoyándose en estrategias formales desarrolladas en trabajos anteriores (The Future Is Behind You o Covert Action), como la pantalla partida o el desdoblamiento de la imagen.

Directors Lounge Screening
Guillaume Cailleau: Bolex, Loves and Other Measures
16mm and Live Super-8 Performance
Thursday, November 29th 2012, 21h
Z-Bar, Bergstraße 2, 10115 Berlin-Mitte
Guillaume Cailleau bridges conceptual working methods with playful references to the avant-garde. This playful mix of forms, expanded cinema, experiments with human perception, and poetic compositions makes the viewing experience very enjoyable for its richness. His sincerity, combined with a joyful wink of the artist's eye add to this impression. Explorations - or games - with color separation, the basics of color photography, are as much part his artistic arsenal as the lyric beauty of rich black and white contrast of high-con film combined associatively on an optical printer.
The artist will perform live, and will be available for Q&A.
971 Horses and 4 Zebras: Artists Apply Animation
Thursday November 29th 2012, 18:30h
Tate Modern, Starr Auditorium, Bankside, London SE1 9TG
Contemporary artists increasingly are using animation techniques in a wide variety of approach and style. This international and eclectic programme celebrates the unpredictable processes of experimental animation, with a focus on how animation as a labour intensive process and form is being applied in the creation of conceptual artworks. It includes films by Geraint Evans, David Theobald, Inger Lise Hansen, James Lowne, Nathaniel Mellors, Emily Richardson, and Chris Shepherd, and the title is taken from a work by Yu Araki in which images of horses, appropriated from the internet, reference the pre-cinema animation of Eadweard Muybridge.
The screening is followed by a panel discussion on the ways in which contemporary artists approach, appropriate and apply animation techniques in their work.
971 Horses and 4 Zebras is co-curated by artist Jordan Baseman and Gary Thomas (Animate Projects). An exhibition runs at Wimbledon Space, Wimbledon College of Art, from 2 November – 9 December 2012 and tours to CAST (Contemporary Art Spaces Tasmania), Monash University Museum of Art, Melbourne, Australia, and The British School at Rome, in 2013.
Peter Kubelka: Monument Film
Screening/lecture. In the presence of Peter Kubelka
Thursday, December 6th 2012, 20h
Palais des Beaux-Arts
Rue Ravenstein 23, 1000 Bruxelles
In 1960 Peter Kubelka put the finishing touches to his film Arnulf Rainer, which is still today seen as a landmark in the history of cinema. In this radical work Kubelka reduced cinema to its simplest form of expression: light and darkness, silence and sound. Without filming any images at all, while drawing attention to the fundamental characteristics of the film apparatus, Kubelka succeeded in creating, in the screening room, an event at once exhilarating and contemplative, whose beauty and power conjures up thunder, lightning or the succession of day and night.
Fifty years later, at a time when cinema technology is undergoing fundamental change, Kubelka presents his new and highly anticipated work Antiphon as a response to that earlier experiment and as a testament to the entire medium. Antiphon, which is every bit as powerful as its predecessor, is combined with Arnulf Rainer to create a new work, Monument Film, extending and reinforcing the power of the two works.
Following New York, Vienna and London, this unique evening will see Brussels host the premiere of Monument Film. Kubelka in person will present Arnulf Rainer and Antiphon, first separately and then together as a double projection (using two synchronised 35 mm projectors). In this exceptional expanded cinema situation, and with all the passion, enthusiasm, and generosity that all those who were present when he visited BOZAR in 2006 will recall, Kubelka will outline his conception of cinema. The presentation will be complemented by an installation in the Council Room.
