This Month's Filmmakers' Choice

This month's Filmmakers' Choice session on June 25 will be presented by artist Deborah Phillips: "I looked for films in which colors, textures, light and time were more important than people and stories. More and more, my research became a journey of discovery into the East European part of the Arsenal Archive. We begin with a film that observes nature, VIRAGAT A NAPNAK. In EXÚ, which features magical compositions by Christoph Janetzko, reality is consumed. Painting in movement ENCOUNTER and ani-mated buttons GUZIK lead on to my animated painting film in different dimensions UNTITLED COLOURMATION whereas EYE MUSIC IN ED MAJOR, a classic of pure color and light, paves the path to one of the most interesting portraits of an artist: WITOLD LUTOSŁAWSKI. HEAT SHIMMER is a subtle example of the three-color separation process, which brings us back to the observation of nature." (D. Philipps)
