PLEASE FORWARD THIS PIECE OF INFORMATION to creative organizations, art networks, production companies, artists and filmmakers you are in contact with.
The ‘Rencontres Internationales’ offer more than a simple presentation of the works. They introduce an intercultural forum gathering various guests from all over the world – artists and filmmakers, institutions and emerging organizations – to testify of the vivacity of creation and its distribution, but also of the artistic and cultural contexts that often are experiencing deep changes.
The event reflects specificities and crossings of art practices between new cinema and contemporary art, explores media art practices and their critical purposes, and work out this necessary time when points of view meet and are exchanged.
The event aims at presenting those works to a broad audience, at creating circulations between different art practices and between different audiences, as well as creating new exchanges between artists, filmmakers and professionals. The ‘Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin/Madrid’, is an event without competition supported by French, German, Spanish and international cultural institutions. http://art-action.org/en_soutien.htm
Best wishes.
