The next 'Rencontres Internationales' will take place in Paris from the
28th of November to the 7th of December 2008, at:
• the
Centre Pompidou,
• the Jeu de Paume national museum,
• and other key location.
Paris/Berlin/Madrid
In 2007, the Rencontres Internationales, which initially took place in
Paris and Berlin, opened up to a third city: Madrid. This event now constitutes
a unique artistic and cultural platform in Europe for artists, professional
networks and various audiences. The venues in the three cities are in
particular the Centre Pompidou and the Jeu de Paume national
museum in Paris, the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin,
the Reina Sofia National museum and the Spanish Cinematheque
in Madrid.
The 'Rencontres Internationales' is a non-commercial event without competition,
supported by French, German, Spanish and international institutions.
The 'Rencontres Internationales' offers more than a simple presentation
of the works. It introduces an intercultural forum gathering various guests
from all over the world - artists and filmmakers, institutions and emerging
organizations - to testify to their reflections and their experiences,
but also to artistic and cultural contexts that are often undergoing deep
changes.
The 'Rencontres Internationales' reflects specificities and convergences
of artistic practices between new cinema and contemporary art,
explores emerging media art practices and their critical purposes,
and makes possible a necessary time when points of view meet and are exchanged.
The event aims at presenting works to a broad audience, at creating circulations
between different art practices and between different audiences, as well
as creating new exchanges between artists, filmmakers and professionals.
It seeks to contribute to a reflection on our contemporary culture of
image via a compelling program opened to everyone.
