[Nettime-ro] Video-Poezii, un proiect al Fundatiei Culturale Meta |
>>> for Romanian scroll down * * *Video-poezii* * * *A **project of META CULTURAL FOUNDATION* *Funded by THE ROMANIAN MINISTRY OF CULTURE AND CULTS through PROMOCULT 2007 Programme and THE ROMANIAN CULTURAL INSTITUTE through CANTEMIR PROGRAMME* In 1924, Victor Brauner, the famous surrealist painter of later, and Ilarie Voronca, poet, invented, as the "avant-garde" that they were, "pictopoetry", of which, in a manifesto, they wrote: "Pictopoetry is not painting. Pictopoetry is not poetry. Pictopoetry is pictopoetry". Paraphrasing them, we could say that videopoetry is not video creation, videopoetry is not poetry, videopoetry is videopoetry! A relatively new species, a "chimera", part image, part sound, and part text, it is Protean and in continuous expansion. We have seen it in all its diversity a few years back, at a festival in Berlin (the organizers had invited American Bob Holman himself, a sort of Pope of "alternative" poetry). A throng of young people were packing a few projection rooms where tens of movies were being shown simultaneously, they were strolling from one room to another, so that, just like me, they would miss as little as they could from all that. I watched then a whole load of short films, some created by videocreators, starting from poetic texts, or from authors, poets or poetesses, others created by poets (of the visual). Sometimes, the film can be an elongation of the text, a free interpretation, the text is only a pretext for another message. The "species" of videopoetry has its individuals as different from each other as some biological species. Eva Pervolovici's project is one of the first self-assumed attempts at videopoetry in Romania. She started it a few years ago, when she was still a student in cinema school. She picked a few well-known authors, and designed a few scripts so that the whole would also speak about her. Eva was known until now more as an excellent young prose writer (as a student, she wrote a collective novel on a forum written by young people who hadn't met, but who shared a common passion: graffiti – the novel, in fact, is called *Graffiti Files*). Now she starts here cinema career in an equally provocative fashion: with videopoetry. So, it is as I've said: videopoetry is not video creation, videopoetry is not poetry, videopoetry is videopoetry! * * *Simona Popescu*** * * *The presentations' PROGRAMme*** * * *25 September 2007* *18:00* *Process Space Art Festival, Balchik* *City Art Gallery* * * *13 October 2007* *18:00* *caviarGAUCHE, Vienna* *Keinergasse 20, 1030 Vienna* * * *16 October 2007 * *20:00* *CEE Photofund, Bratislava* *A4-Zero Space* *Namestie Slobody,* *81234, Bratislava* * * *17 October 2007* *18:30* *Romanian Cultural Institute, Prague* *Anglicka 26, Praha 2, 120 00* *19 October 2007* *19:30 * *Romanian Cultural Institute**, Berlin* *Koenigsallee 20A,* *D-14193, Berlin* * * *22 October 2007* *18:00 * *Programm Gallery, Warsaw*** *Al.

Pictopoezia nu e poezie. Pictopoezia e pictopoezie." Parafrazindu-i, am putea spune ca videopoezia nu e creatie video, videopoezia nu e poezie, videopoezia e videopoezie! Specie relativ noua, o "himera", in parte imagine, in parte sunet si text, e proteica si in continua expansiune. Am vazut-o in toata diversitatea ei acum citiva ani, la un festival care avea loc la Berlin (organizatorii il invitasera chiar pe americanul Bob Holman, un fel de Papa al poeziei „alternative"). Multime de tineri umpleau citeva sali unde se derulau, simultan, zeci de filme, se plimbau de la o sala la alta, ca si mine, ca sa piarda cit mai putin din ceea ce-i interesa. Am vazut atunci o gramada de scurtmetraje, unele create de videasti, pornind de la texte poetice sau de la autori, poeti si poete, altele create de poeti (si ai vizualului). Uneori, filmul poate fi o prelungire a unui text, o interpretare libera, chiar o forma de "exegeza" care foloseste alt limbaj, cel vizual. Alteori, textul e doar pretext pentru un alt mesaj. "Specia" videopoeziei isi are indivizii ei la fel de diferiti ca unele specii biologice. Proiectul Evei Pervolovici este una din primele incercari asumate de a face videopoezie in Romania. L-a inceput acum citiva ani, cind inca era studenta la Cinematografie. Si-a ales citiva autori cunoscuti si a gindit citeva scenarii in asa fel incit ansamblul lor sa vorbeasca si despre ea. Eva era cunoscuta pina acum mai ales ca o excelenta tinara prozatoare (a scris, pe cind era studenta, la un roman colectiv creat pe un forum de tineri care nu se cunosteau, dar care aveau o pasiune comuna: graffiti-ul – romanul se numeste, de altfel, *Graffiti Files*). Acum, isi incepe cariera cinematografica la fel de provocator: cu videopoezie. Ramine, deci, cum am spus: videopoezia nu e creatie video, videopoezia nu e poezie, videopoezia e videopoezie! *Simona Popescu*** * * ** * * *PROGRAMUL PREZENTARILOR* * * *25 septembrie 2007* *18:00* *Process Space Art Festival, Balcic* *City Art Gallery* * * *13 octombrie 2007* *18:00*** *caviarGAUCHE, Viena* *Keinergasse 20, 1030 Viena* * * *16 octombrie 2007 * *20:00* *CEE Photofund, Bratislava* *A4-Zero Space* *Namestie Slobody,* *81234, Bratislava* * * *17 octombrie 2007* *18:30* *Institutul Cultural Roman, Praga* *Anglicka 26, Praha 2, 120 00* *19 octombrie 2007* *19:30 * *Institutul Cultural Roman, Berlin* *Koenigsallee 20A,* *D-14193, Berlin* * * *22 octombrie 2007* *18:00 * *Programm Gallery, Varsovia*** *Al.
