Rafael Guendelman Hales
Paisaje: Mis pies en la noche, el mar en mis pies.
Vidéo | hdv | couleur | 6:59 | Chili | 2012
Landscape: My feet at night, the sea on my feet (2012) This work was born as a late work from the project ?Between Iloca and Dichato? which tried to capture, by means of a trip, the marginal and unmediated consequences of the Chilean Tsunami, one year later. The space reveals the weight of time, where in the year since the Tsunami things haven´t changed radically. Compared with ?Man?, this video focuses on the landscape using steady and long shots as a strategy to capture those ?after? spaces. The silence of the field, contrasted with the government speech; the Sea goes up and down, the man is just a viewer, or another piece from the picture.

Corta
Doc. expérimental | 16mm | couleur | 69:0 | Colombie, Argentine | 2012
Through the means of a still fixed camera and the rhythmic strengtht granted by on-camera editing; Corta is a film centered upon the hypnotic extenuation generated by the body movements of sugar cane cutters. A contemplation of the frenziness and softness of the performatic gestures of hand labour while the surrounding plantations act as an omnipresent backdrop as the canes disappear. Corta is a pure cinematic experience about the natural and everyday ritual of a timeless world.
Felipe Guerrero holds a degree in Film Editing from the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia, in Rome, Italy. As an editor he has worked in internationally exhibited and award-winning films. In 2006 he made his directing debut with the documentary Paraíso, which was awarded at FID Marseille. Corta is his second film. He lives in Buenos Aires.

Adler Guerrier
untitled - rhetoric that preaches revolution
Doc. expérimental | hdv | couleur et n&b | 23:19 | Haiti, USA | 2008
Dans Untitled (Rhetoric that Preaches Revolution), je voulais faire une pièce qui se concentrerait sur la voix d’un groupe d’artistes et qui serait éclairée par les fondements structurels de leurs œuvres. L’accent est mis en partie sur ce qu’ils voudraient dire à la lumière des évènements mondiaux et régionaux. La pièce se base sur des enregistrements de journaux télévisés et des images assemblées des unes de la presse écrite relatant l’actualité, principalement de 1965 à 1968, comme Martin Luther King marchant vers Selma, Malcolm X en train de parler, des membres du Black Panther Party en confrontation avec les médias et la police, le soulèvement du Watts, des manifestants étudiants avec des revendications et des ouvriers en contestation. Lire ces images, d’un point de vue sympathisant, et les transformer en œuvres constituaient mon objectif général.
Adler Guerrier creates visual dialogue between a wunderkammer of materials and techniques. Guerrier improvises between form and function to nimbly subvert space and time in constructions of race, ethnicity, class, and culture. He calls upon the democratizing nature of collage and the authority of formal composition to designate to art history an axis of contemporary identity critique. Often chronicling the hybridity and juxtaposition in his immediate environs, Guerrier practices a contemporary flaneurie in an impending age of post-demography. Adler Guerrier was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti and lives and works in Miami, FL, where he received a BFA at the New World School of the Arts. Guerrier recently had a solo exhibition at Perez Art Museum Miami, Miami, FL. He has exhibited work at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, Miami, FL; The Bass Museum of Art, Miami, FL; Harn Musem of Art, Gainesville, FL; and The Whitney Biennial 2008. His works can be found in public collections including the Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami, and the Studio Museum in Harlem, NY. His work has appeared in Art Forum, Art in America, The New York Times and ARTNews, among others.

Alexis Guillier
Purgatoire (Cinema that kills)
Doc. expérimental | digital | couleur et n&b | 61:44 | France, Liban | 2023
Alexis Guillier’s film looks at the deadly fire that broke out at the Beirut nightclub "Purgatoire" on the set of the 1969 Lebanese movie "Kolouna Feda'iyoun" ("We are all fedayeen") by Gary Garabedian, a take on Palestinian resistance at the time. Guillier’s project delves into the complexity of the film’s context, the precariousness of Lebanese cinema, and the investigation of the accident. The narrative of the film is built through the stories of the main protagonists: Purgatoire’s owner Sami Ghosn, TV star and Gary Garabedian's good friend Salah Tizani (aka Abu Salim), actor Samir Abu Saeed, the last living actor to have appeared in the film and who was at Purgatoire the night of the accident, actor Samir Chamas, who played in the film and who arrived on the scene just after the accident, Mirvat Kousa, sister of the actress Mona Slim, who was seriously injured in the accident, Hussein Al Sayyed, special effects expert and Christiane Mallouk, sister of the extra Gaby Mallouk who died in the accident. "Purgatoire" is part of the larger project "La réalité éclatée / A many splattered thing, conceived as an investigative history of cinema through set accidents that have caused deaths and severe injuries. The whole project is interested in the tensions between production and representation, material reality and image carried on the screen. In this respect, the exploration of the accident in "Purgatoire" is marked by these questions and inhabited by the revealing power of the accident. The film also testifies to the evolution of Alexis Guillier's image work, which is illustrated here through the increased exploration of visual associations, layered editing and opacity, which are also reflexive tools on the context, the story, and the narrative of the accident, and which nourish a play with certain formal codes of documentary.
Alexis Guillier se consacre à des performances, des films, textes ou installations, qui sont des montages narratifs, nés d’investigations (documentaires et de terrain) dans l’histoire collective et les histoires individuelles. L’entraînant de la falsification à la déformation et la disparition des œuvres, d’un accident de tournage aux vaisseaux fantômes, ou à gravir les contours de la géante Notre-Dame de France, ses formes mêlent des documents très divers, qui coexistent dans l’histoire culturelle mais ne s’y associent que rarement. Ses sujets d’investigation le poussent à observer la circulation des images et des productions culturelles, les échos et les récurrences, la formation des imaginaires, les interactions entre les actions personnelles et les histoires souvent nationales, sous un angle tant esthétique qu’anthropologique. La transmission de ces récits s’interroge elle-même, restant toujours sur une ligne incertaine, entre subjectivité détachée et lyrisme documentaire, et participant de l’indétermination des objets investis. Ses recherches sont faites d’analogies, d’associations d’idées, s’intéressent aussi à la paranoïa comme méthode. Plus récemment, il cherche à mettre en perspective ses projets avec des « affaires », partant du constat que l’accident, la catastrophe et leur violence reviennent avec insistance. Les processus d'enquête et de montage semblent aussi témoigner d’un même rapport au corps, comme s’il s’agissait de recoller ensemble des morceaux découpés dans plusieurs histoires ou sources.

Une coalition de militants, d'artistes et d'écrivains peut-elle éviter de se prendre les pieds dans ses propres préjugés et privilèges, pour créer quelque chose de convaincant? Peuvent-ils unir leurs forces pour battre un système populiste à son propre jeu? "Soap" est une collaboration entre Tamar Guimarães, Luisa Cavanagh et Rusi Millán Pastori.

Soap: Epidode 5 - Moses And Monotheism
Vidéo | hdv | couleur | 27:0 | Royaume-Uni, Brésil | 2021
SOAP, 2020-ongoing, imagines what it would take to create a soap opera with which to infiltrate, and influence, the conspiratorial far right in Bolsonaro’s Brazil. A group of idealistic left-wing intellectuals join forces to play a populist system at its own game. Through the initial five episodes, the heroes struggle to chart a course through their own ideas and ideologies by way of quotidian dramas and veiled intrigues. But how can this small group of artists, writers and activists overcome the struggle of principles, their internal bickering and the absurdities of their own privilege to create something that resonates and has real impact with their target audience? IN Episode 5, ‘MOSES AND MONOTHEISM’, concepts clash ferociously, hand puppets scream and pray, renowned Genocide Scholars are accosted and conspiracies bleed across borders. Meanwhile, as the left-wing infiltrators struggle to make sense of their own intentions, entertaining the idea of creating a YouTube series aimed at the evangelic Brazilians, the Querdenkers (a movement that fuses protesters against Covid measures with the far-right scene thriving on a sense of crisis and apocalypse) move through plague-time Berlin like a danse macabre.

Soap: Episode Six and a Half: Talking Soap
Fiction | 0 | couleur | 23:55 | Brésil | 2023
SOAP is a film in seven episodes following the infiltration attempts of a cluster of left-wing people in right-wing social networks. The tactic chosen by the group is the creation of a YouTube channel aimed at teenagers employing the apparently conservative language of religious devotion and self help through prayer. SOAP asks questions such as can a coalition of artists, writers and activists avoid tripping over their own assumptions and privileges to form something persuasive? Is the white left dead? Or rather, have the forms of appeal and address relied upon by the intellectual Lefts ceased to be effective? Is there a way out of the internal bickering and accusations - that continue to hamper political movements? In episode 'six and a half', Camila narrates the previous episodes, reflecting on the project's aims and fractures from the perspective of a post election moment in which the Left was re-elected to the presidency in Brazil.

Fiction | digital | couleur | 14:38 | Brésil | 2023
SOAP follows the infiltration attempts of a cluster of left-wing people in right-wing social networks. The tactic chosen by the group is the creation of a YouTube channel aimed at teenagers employing the apparently conservative language of religious devotion and self-help through prayer. In episode six our infiltrators continue to discuss the implications of the soap they are plotting. In the meantime the group has fractured and one of its former member has left the project to pursue traditional politics, preparing to launch her candidacy as a trans councilwoman.

O Ensaio
Fiction expérimentale | mov | couleur | 56:0 | Brésil | 2018
Isa, a young artist invited to propose a project for an exhibition, sets out to stage a dramatic adaptation of ‘The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas’, a satirical 19th-century novel by Machado de Assis. The rehearsal is marred by difficulties which the viewer must interpret as being due to the fact that Isa is a woman, young, black, all of the above, or as difficulties anyone would encounter. The novel delivers a mordant critique of Brazilian society in the guise of a satirical autobiography narrated by a dead protagonist. In 1880 its author foresaw the abolition of slavery that would happen in Brazil eight years later, but predicted that it would be a mere formal measure, informally everything would remain the same. The film was shot at the Ibirapuera pavilion designed by Oscar Niemeyer and its cast is made up of professional and non-professional actors, several of whom worked or currently work for the São Paulo Biennial Foundation. Featuring actors recast from another project Guimarães had worked on eight years earlier, O Ensaio is a film about the passage of time, about short lived revolutionary actions, about institutional memory, racism, and sexism in Brazil.
Tamar Guimarães (b. 1967, Belo Horizonte, BR, lives and works in Copenhagen) is a visual artist working with film and other forms of time based media, exploring situations both residual and contemporary, of art, architecture and the institutions that present them. She often works with actors alongside non-actors in semi-fictional short films. Another, more documentary strand of her work has delved into spectral architecture, ritual effervescence, states of rapture and their intersection with the nation state. Recent solo exhibitions include Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Madrid; Jeu de Paume Satellite, Paris; Gasworks, London and the IMA Institute of Modern Art, Brisbane. Guimarães’ works have been included at the 33rd, 31st and the 29th São Paulo Biennial; the Belgian Pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennial; the International Exhibition at the 55th Venice Biennial; at the LACMA - Los Angeles County Museum of Art (USA); Baltimore Museum of Art (USA); the 11th Sharjah Biennial (UAE); the Banff Centre, Alberta (CA); Malmö Museum (SE) and South London Gallery; the Guggenheim Museum, NY (USA); the SculptureCenter (NY/USA); the 7th Gwangju Biennial (SK); the 3rd Guanghzhou Triennial (CN); the Jumex museum, Mexico (MX); Frac/Le Plateau, Paris (FR); CAC Synagogue de Delme (FR).

C’est au bout du conte que la sympathique poupée Pinocchio, se transformait en homme après avoir renoncé à faire des bêtises et s’être conformé au bon sens de rigueur. D’abord il s’était réjoui de cette récompense. Mais un beau jour, Pinocchio vit une multitude d’animaux empaillés dans un musée. Des êtres du passe, mais qui en même temps représentent bien plus que ce qu’elles étaient. Plus libres que lui, Pinocchio, libres de peupler son imagination. Mais le garçon en bois réalisa cela bien plus tard, quand, à l’âge adulte, il se rappela ses larmes en rentrant du musée, où, loups et ours l’attendaient le regard fixé sur lui.

Valea Jiului - Notes
Doc. expérimental | 16mm | couleur | 13:30 | Allemagne, Roumanie | 2018
Children of the Jiu Valley are familiar with roads. Theirs but especially those of the adults. Roads through the tunnel, the mountains or the Valley. All the roads seem made to leave as well as to return. The parents of these children, once the inhabitants of an old industrial area of Romania, take now long roads to reach the West, wherever they may find work. They return too seldomly. They send money. Their children are a lot like orphans. Many of them experience depression. Some choose to take the fatal road to Paradise or Hell. Maybe with the hope of coming back to a kinder vale.

NEALE AZBUIRATOARE
Film expérimental | super8 | couleur et n&b | 24:0 | Allemagne | 2022
AGNÈLES VOLANTES SYNOPSIS Les Aroumains, une minorité balkanique de bergers nomades, de langue romane, vivant au sud du Danube, se sont vus persécutés et menacés de mort dans des luttes territoriales sanglantes lors de l'effondrement de l'Empire ottoman et de la formation des nations qui s'en suit. Ils ne peuvent plus louer les montagnes de pâturage et les frontières deviennent une menace. Sans territoire et sans langue écrite, ils sont bannis de l'histoire et sont en constante errance. Ils marchent avec les troupeaux, ayant pour seule certitude leur propre identité, une culture orale dans un dialecte archaïque que l'auteure a parlé dans sa petite enfance avec ses grands-parents nés dans le nord de la Grèce. Dispersés dans le monde, absents des cimetières, ce film cultive la mémoire des Aroumains qui traversent dans un exil permanent les montagnes et les mers, habités par des échos de voix qui résonnent fort, rebondissent sur les rochers et pourtant ne sont pas entendus. Leur histoire est racontée du point de vue subjectif de l'artiste, mettant en scène des archives qui interprètent passionnément cette perpétuelle errance tragique mais aussi pleine de courage.

Ce film a été tourné pendant une période où j'ai vécue et travaillé à Berlin. La tour désaffectée où le film a été réalisé, a eu une vie antérieure du temps de la RDA où elle abritait un centre administratif de services sociaux. Le film suit les mouvements de plaques en plastique que j'ai suspendues en haut des fenêtres au dernier étage de l'immeuble. La légèreté des feuilles en plastique fait que ses mouvements, générés par le vent subissent un fort ralentissement. Le jour du tournage, j'ai mis en place une station de radio pirate afin de diffuser une bande-son que j'avais enregistrée dans la cage d'escalier. Celle-ci se caractérise par un multiplexe sonore de rythmes et de bruits acoustiques de l'immeuble. Ces sons sont mixés par ordinateur et diffusés depuis un émetteur du haut d'un immeuble.

Tine Guns
To Each His Own Mask
Doc. expérimental | hdv | couleur et n&b | 42:12 | Belgique | 2017
We live in times of crises and failing economic systems. No wonder that questions of change are recurrent. Protest culture is having a revival. Every revolution has its icons. Nowadays, we see the mask show up. Wearing a mask is a carnivalesque strategy. Carnival is a ritual, temporarily dismantling social and political regimes, suspending norms and values. But after this limited period of allowed disorder and change, the order is restored. So the question arises: does the current wave of protests serve as an illusion of carnival? Or have we forgotten the function of carnival? Have we forgotten that the purpose of the ritual is to remember? To Each His Own Mask is a challenging artistic documentary by filmmaker and visual artist Tine Guns, linked to her installation Perpetual Moment of Pause.

Normalisation of a Disaster
Film expérimental | mp4 | couleur | 8:46 | Inde | 2020
While observing an isolated event of an artificial, industry-facilitated disaster, Normalisation of A Disaster makes a reflective commentary on the psyche of people in the vicinity of the site of disaster, albeit not immediately affected by it. Exploring the ideas of nonchalance, sensitization and casual tourism towards sites of disaster in a region plagued by disasters, this reflection includes the self of the artist, and his family, and hordes of ‘tourists’ attracted towards the light of the morbid spectacle. The Baghjan Oil Blowout happened on 27th of May 2020, which caught fire through a massive explosion on 9th of June 2020 after leaking gas in the atmosphere for two weeks, continued to burn for 6 months, before being finally doused on 15th of November, 2020. This artificial disaster in an Oil-India Limited owned site has caused the displacement of more than 1600 families who were in the vicinity of the site of gas blowout, and were being sheltered in makeshift relief camps in nearby areas.
Devadeep Gupta B. 1989 Guwahati, Assam, India I frame my artistic process as an exploration of regional ecological uncertainties through a critical examination of associated mainstream perspectives. Inspired by site-specific and vernacular occurrences, I delve into the intricate relationship between people and their land. My artistic practice encompasses the realms of film and sculpture, bridging the gap between conceptual and documentary approaches. Within this intersection, I am particularly interested in narratives that emerge from the convergence of mythology and contemporary experiences. Grounded in the rich cultural landscape of Assam, I draw inspiration from pragmatic practices, oral traditions, and folklore. Central to my artistic endeavors are performative processes that pay homage to meta-cultural practices. Through visual and conceptual stimuli, I incorporate elements of local community-led actions to portray the environmental changes specific to each site. Everyday rituals that have organically evolved as meta-cultural actions inspire the forms and expressions within my artistic practice. The outtakes of my process, realized as rhythmic sculptural forms are expressed through mediums of film, image and sculpture to illustrate these outcomes. ?
