I had nowhere to go
April 5 - 3:30pm
Screening / Meeting with Douglas Gordon, Jonas Mekas
As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposed by Pascale Cassagnau for the Collection Lambert.
With I had nowhere to go, a free adaptation of Jonas Mekas' autobiographical account, Douglas Gordon highlights the filmmaker's own time and method, and creates a cinematic portrait. The portrait exercise is similar to the first opus devoted to an unclassifiable figure of the 21st century, Zidane, Un portrait du XXIème siècle, produced with Philippe Parreno in 2004.
Dancehall
May 3 - 3:30pm
Screening / Meeting with Cecilia Bengolea
As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposed by Pascale Cassagnau for the Collection Lambert.
In Cecilia Bengolea's work, dancing bodies, sculpted bodies, ghostly digital bodies and sporting bodies are all part of the logic of infinite, repeated and different metamorphoses, working to express these differences (economic-social, sexual, cultural) to develop comparative grammars. Their inclusion in the landscape, in the architecture, in the precise ecosystem of Latin America and the Caribbean endows them with a veritable indexical status.
Les Disparates, A slow introduction
June 7th - 3:30pm
Screening / Meeting with Cesar Vayssié, Boris Charmatz
As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposed by Pascale Cassagnau for the Collection Lambert.
The film "Une lente introduction" is a 35mm reinterpretation of the original piece Herses (une lente introduction). Artist Gilles Touyard designed the floor, providing a spatial cue in the pitch-black surrounding the active dance surface. Hypnotically, bodies meet, tangle and coil in a slowness carried by silence that exposes the impermanence of the figures. Like the choreographed version, the film focuses on three utopias: that of the subject, that of the couple, and that of the community.
Sommerspiele
October 4th - 3:30pm
Screening / Meeting with Ezster Salamon
As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposed by Pascale Cassagnau for the Collection Lambert.
Through precise editing and framing, the film's dramaturgy perfectly reflects the tensions arising from the confrontation between body and architecture, a metaphor for art's resistance to what constrains its subjects.
Sound workshop & spontaneous expression
November 8 - 3:30pm
Screening / Meeting with Vincent Epplay
As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposed by Pascale Cassagnau for the Collection Lambert.
Vincent Epplay's work is made up of sound pieces that fall somewhere between pure sound creation - in this respect, his work is close to experimental music - and experimental video creation (working in filmic space with found footage, collage and the reuse of found footage, with references to early cinema). For Vincent Epplay, the phenomenon of reworking and collage constitutes a methodical work of experimentation, starting with the re-appropriation of ready-made sound and visual compositions without qualities, by compiling various vernacular documents.
One Two, Many
December 6 - 3:30pm
Screening / Meeting with Manon de Boer
In Manon de Boer's work, spaces multiply levels of meaning and narrative, weaving together relationships of uncertainty that define a disidentified cinema, set at a distance from itself. Such is the quality and strength of contemporary filmic spaces: their quality as inchoative objects makes them spaces for the complex deciphering of plural, fragmentary, heterogeneous histories.
