Festival Temps D'Images 2011
Call for Entries 2011 - deadline 15 de Julho 2011
The transdisciplinary festival TEMPS D'IMAGES enables, produces and presents since seven years artistic works which were created through the mutual exchange of artists of different disciplines such as performer and film maker, visual artist and musician, writer and dancer.
This year for the third time TEMPS D'IMAGES announces the competition of films to win the TEMPS D'IMAGES FILM AWARD for films on art.
Films on art or artists are intrinsincly transdiciplinary art works since the film maker necessarily has to confront his own film art with the art of the artist which he wants to present.
TEMPS D'IMAGES will select and award films on art which show a unique and high quality of traditional as well as contemporary forms of documentaries: from hommage films to film essays to long term observations to historical research upto experimental films who themselves become an art work through their way of filming or editing - TEMPS D'IMAGES will give a chance to all different forms.
There can be portraits of a famous artist in which the film maker had to approach his protagonist by finding ways between high respect and his own idea to the film, there can be films on the sociological/political context in which a specific art or artist arise, or films with the focus on the process of creation, films which reflect the formal problems in showing 3-dimensional art works in film, films about art or art history itself, films on art of other than the film maker's culture...
A rich interplay is established between artist, art work, film-director-as-artist, and viewer when a film on art wants to be more than a mere documentation, recording of an art event.
TEMPS D'IMAGES calls for submission of films which can include various art forms and topics such as painting, performance art, music, theatre, sculpture, art and science, photography, video art, media art, art and crafts, art history, dance, architecture, cinema, art market, museums, animation, poetry, literature, design and biographies.
Pure documentations and recordings of art events and pure film art films (experimental films, video art) are not eligible. The individual approach of the film maker towards his film on art has to be clearly stated.
