From 12 - 21 March 2015, the HBK Film Class undertook an excursion to Athens. The participants included eight students and the professor of the Film Class. The Film Class was invited by the Moving Silence Festival of Athens in cooperation with the Goethe Institute of Athens, and held a workshop called “Vice Versa” with the Circuits & Currents project space of the Athens School of Fine Arts.
March 12 - 16, 2015 – Moving Silence in Athens.
We want to bring the poetry of silent moving images back to the present!
As a group of musicians, artists and film professionals we create a platform for contemporary silent movies. Therefore we are building up a network and organize events to connect the roots of cinematography with the present aesthetics of image and live music production.
The predecessors of moving images have a long tradition in portraying and characterizing people and places. But they were limited to one "frame". When film evolved, portraits could be extended by a new dimension: time. Moving Silence Athens under the artistic direction of Matthias Fritsch presents a cinematic program that is is inspired by the theme of "portrait". The events include silent projections of contemporary films that are accompanied with live soundtracks, a workshop and an exhibition on GIF art.
For the 5th time the Goethe-Institut Athen is co-producing these events. This years collaborating venues are Circuits and Currents, the recently opened project space in Exarchia, and Iris cinema, the beautiful vintage cinema in the heart of Athens.
80s Underground Classic "JESUS - THE FILM"
Saturday March 14th, 2015 at 21:00
JESUS - THE FILM by Michael Brynntrup is a monumental feature film in 35 episodes, shot on Super8. The individual episodes retell the story of the New Testament and were made by a total of 22 filmmakers from East and West Germany in 15 months (1985/86).
The screening at Iris, the incredibly beautiful vintage cinema of the University of Athens Students' Cultural Society, presented the classic with a completely new live soundtrack. The musicians were: Azmon>Nehum, Adam_is, Efthimis Theodosis, DEKJ, Voltnoi Brege, Duo Violoncelli (Georgina Dimitriou & Jorgos Tamiolakis), Balsamsaft and Guests (Anna Pangalou); artistic direction by Thalia Ioannidou and Nektarios Pappas.
Workshop 'Vice Versa' (12. - 16.03.2015)
Während der ersten fünf Tage der Exkursion wurde zusammen mit den Studierenden der Athens School of Fine Arts der Workshop 'Vice Versa' durchgeführt. In griechisch-deutsch-gemischten Zweiergruppen haben sich die Studierenden beider Hochschulen gegenseitig portraitiert. Entstanden sind insgesamt 19 kurze Videos mit einer Gesamtlänge von ca. einer Stunde. Zum Abschluß des Workshops wurde das Programm im Projektraum 'Circuits & Currents' öffentlich präsentiert und von drei griechischen Musikern live vertont (Yorgos Axiotis, Thalia Ioannidou, Gellina Palla). (Workshopleitung: Michael Brynntrup)
The workshop 'Vice Versa' was based on collaboration in a 2-person-team. Each workshop participant was working with an unknown person of the other university. By being limited to visual expression only, the participants had to develop a strong visual language and narration. The workshop’s aim was the production of one silent moving images portrait by each participant; all 19 portraits came together in a program of about one hour.
The results were publicly presented & joined by live soundtracks
on March 16th at 7pm in Circuits and Currents, Notara 13 & Tositsa.
