The main goal of Tabakalera’s International Film Seminar is to reflect on the intersection between cinema and contemporary art. The starting point is always the summer exhibition in Tabakalera and the proposal consists of sharing three days with artists and filmmakers who, based on different proposals and activities, will complete the experience linked to the moving image.
This year the exhibition Vive le cinéma! will be used as the starting point for the Seminar. Four film directors have responded to the invitation to make a piece for an exhibition room instead of for a cinema. The filmmakers are Dea Kulumbegashvili, Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese, Isaki Lacuesta and Jia Zhang-ke.
Kulumbegashvili and Lacuesta will attend the seminar. In addition to them, Rabih Mroué, Alex Reynolds, Maddi Barber and Mirari Echávarri will also take part. Based on the interventions by the guests we will reflect on space and time, the audience’s experience and the limits of the screen, as well as on the language itself of cinematography.
