Moving Images fromEurope : New Acquisitions of Light Cone

This program is a highly subjective selection of works recently added to
Light Cone’s distribution catalog by contemporary European moving image
artists. It does not pretend to be a comprehensive survey but attempts to
suggest something of the variety and vitality of current activity.

I TOLD YOU THIS WOULD HAPPEN

2012 / sound / 6' 00

Johanna VAUDE (France) lives in Paris and studied at the Université Paris 1
Sorbonne. Her films explore a multitude of techniques ranging from painting
directly onto to Super 8 to the manipulation of new digital technologies.

PICTURE PARTICLES

2014 / sound / 5' 45

Thorsten FLEISCH (Germany) studied film in Frankfurt with Peter Kubelka and
now lives and works in Berlin. He sees in the artefacts of traditional film
formats “building blocks for an alternate reality.”

FRANCE-BRAZIL IN NEW YORK

1998 / sound / 3'00

Milena GIERKE (Germany) studied with Peter KUBELKA and Ken JACOBS in
Frankfurt and with Robert BREER and Hans HAACKE at Cooper Union, New York.
She has lived in Berlin since 1998.

A SHAVED MINT

2006 / sound / 16' 14

Claudio SINATTI (Italy) was a video and multimedia artist whose work
focused on audiovisual performances and installations, “oscillating between
abstract and real, intimate and furious.”

ASPECT

2004 / sound/ 9'00

Emily RICHARDSON (UK) creates film portraits of particular places. Her work
focuses on sites in transition and covers a diverse range of landscapes
including empty London East End streets, forests, North Sea oil fields,
post-war tower blocks, empty cinemas and Cold War military facilities.

WATER GARDENS

2013/ sound / 4'50

Ian HELLIWELL (UK) has produced and developed music, experimental films,
electronic instruments, film and music programmes and light-show
projections for concerts and club nights. Self- taught, operating alone and
without funding, he has worked with second-hand and self-built equipment
and produced over 80 short films since the early 1990s.

CROSS

2014 / sound / 4'49

Christophe GUERIN (France) often works from film (Super 8, 16mm, 35mm) to
produce digital video exploringthe differences between the two media in
both their the graphic and temporal qualities. He is the founder of the
Association Eluparcettecrapule based in Le Havre where he has programmed
experimental cinema since 1992.

IN OTHER WORDS

2014 /sil / 9'30

Daniel BURKHARDT (Germany) studied Media Art at the Academy of Media Arts
(KHM) in Cologne where he now lives and works. His video and audio visual
installations playfully and ingeniously “expose human perception as the
driving motor behind the construction of meaning.”


FRAMELINES

2013 / sil / 9'00

Scott HAMMEN (France) is a 1975 graduate of the Visual Studies Workshop who
has lived in Paris since 1982. He has been interested in how digital
projection provides new ways of looking at motion picture film.
