Piet Zwart Institute, Rotterdam
A symposium organized by the Piet Zwart Institute, Creating 010 & The 43rd International Film Festival Rotterdam
A symposium exploring contemporary approaches to narrative. Organized within the context of the IFFR, the Master Media Design and Communication programme, in collaboration with Creating 010, has invited significant moving-image artists and filmmakers to talk about their work and strategies of representing stories. Working with new and archival material, montage and found footage, these contemporary practices employ the languages of art, cinema, theatre, documentary and fiction in unexpected ways. Rather than being driven by conventional storytelling or a script, they are often non-linear, fragmentary and rely upon the viewer to lend cohesion and continuity. Gaps are not omissions, but rather choreographed spaces for projection, induced memories, and public participation. In other words, these artists not only test narrative as a variable form, but also expand the notion of spectatorship. The speakers are the artists: Pierre Bismuth, Smadar Dreyfus, Rick Prelinger, Pablo Sigg and Keith Sanborn.
