男人游戏 (2017)
Playing Men Douban
Matjaz Ivanisin
other title: Playing Men
Everybody knows that playing is a serious matter. Director Matjaž Ivanišin is confident about that, and he has chosen to take us to a strictly male world. We get to see men striking punching balls at a funfair, clinching each other roughly until the shoulders of their opponents touch the ground, trying to excel at throwing heavy rounds of cheese through the narrow streets of villages, competing at screaming the numbers obtained by adding their raised fingers, etc. Sports deemed noble or tavern hobbies, peaceful leisure activities or amusements infused with barely contained violence, and although incongruous at times, all these games clearly have a touch of archaism about them.

Briar Levit actor: Ilene Strizver / Gerard Huerta …
It’s been roughly 30 years since the desktop computer revolutionized the way the graphic design industry works. For decades before that, it was the hands of industrious workers, and various ingenious machines and tools that brought type and image together on meticulously prepared paste-up boards, before they were sent to the printer. The documentary, Graphic Means, which is now in production, will explore graphic design production of the 1950s through the 1990s—from linecaster to photocomposition, and from paste-up to PDF.

莱妮•里芬斯塔尔(Leni Riefenstahl),一个德国乃至世界电影史上都不能忽视且又引起无数争论的名字。这个美丽且带有神秘气质的女子身兼舞蹈家、摄像师、演员、导演多职,作为导演,她以其强烈浓重的阳刚风格俘虏万千观众。 她的争议来自于为电影事业所作出的贡献和她间接对人类“犯下的罪行”。在动乱的年代里,里芬斯塔尔的电影风格受到元首希特勒的赏识,因此受邀为纳粹拍过多部歌功颂德的纪录片,如《意志的胜利》和《奥林匹亚》。凭借帝国的支持,里芬斯塔尔创造性地将电影美学提升到前所未有的高度,而这些影片也成为战后饱受诟病的魔鬼作品。 本片根据大量采访和珍贵影像资料,向人们讲述了这位走过百年岁月传奇女性的一生。

John Berger: The Art of Looking Douban
Cordelia Dvorak actor: 约翰·伯格 / Selçuk Demirel …
other title: 约翰·伯格:观看的艺术
Art, politics and motorcycles - on the occasion of his 90th birthday John Berger or the Art of Looking is an intimate portrait of the writer and art critic whose ground-breaking work on seeing has shaped our understanding of the concept for over five decades. The film explores how paintings become narratives and stories turn into images, and rarely does anybody demonstrate this as poignantly as Berger. Berger lived and worked for decades in a small mountain village in the French Alps, where the nearness to nature, the world of the peasants and his motorcycle, which for him deals so much with presence, inspired his drawing and writing. The film introduces Berger's art of looking with theatre wizard Simon McBurney, film-director Michael Dibb, visual artist John Christie, cartoonist Selçuk Demiral, photographer Jean Mohr as well as two of his children, film-critic Katya Berger and the painter Yves Berger. The prelude and starting point is Berger's mind-boggling experience of restored vision following a successful cataract removal surgery. There, in the cusp of his clouding eyesight, Berger re-discovers the irredeemable wonder of seeing. Realised as a portrait in works and collaborations, this creative documentary takes a different approach to biography, with John Berger leading in his favourite role of the storyteller.

路易斯.布尔乔亚〔Louise Bourgeois〕 Louise Bourgeois(1911- )富有影响力的雕塑家、画家,批评家与作家.是至今健在的享有世界声誉的女性艺术家之一,她的名望随着岁月的流逝还在增长。很少有人直到90岁时还能保持如此旺盛的创造力,她自已写了这样一句话: “人越老越聪明”.她的存在本身就演绎了一段生命的奇迹。 Louise Bourgeois生于巴黎,25岁时才学习艺术。 1938年与美国艺术史学家Robert Goldwater, (1907-73)结婚,并移居纽约,她早期的作品都是绘画或平面雕刻,以接近于超现实主义的方式进行创作,40年代后又开始尝试雕塑。起初搞彩色木雕,后来其雕塑的用材越来越广,包括青铜、大理石、乳胶等。她的作品看起来虽然抽象,但很容易让观者产生联想:想到人的躯体和性。其作品总和人与人之间的关系有关,背叛、复仇、焦虑、迷惑、攻击、不平、孤独,抽象深奥但具有情绪上的震撼力。她终生被这些主题吸引,但却不断变换材质、风格、形式,进行反复探索,因此面貌丰富而多变。 1982年美国现代艺术馆专程为她举办了个人回顾展,极少有在世的艺术家能享受到这项殊荣,何况她是一位女性。 Louise Bourgeois创造力的真正爆发还是在她70岁以后。她大胆尝试橡胶、石膏等新材料,并恰到好处地将行为、装置等形式融入自己的艺术,很难想象,这位年逾古稀的高龄老太太甚至还亲自创作Rap(一种流行的说唱音乐,其特点是连续反复的节奏和具有社会反抗意识的说唱词)。为此,Bourgeois当之无愧地成为了新一代艺术家的榜样和女权运动的楷模。 对她父亲的失望和童年噩梦是她的艺术动力:在2008年6月,纽约的电影论坛 (Film Forum)首映了纪录片"路易斯.布尔乔亚:蜘蛛,情妇,与橘子" (Louise Bourgeois: the Spider, the Mistress and the Tangerine),纪录了女艺术家的内心世界。 一般人对布尔乔亚印象最深的记忆,莫过于她那大型蜘蛛(Maman) ,布尔乔亚说:蜘蛛,为什么是蜘蛛呢?我最好的朋友是我的母亲,她就像蜘蛛一样聪明,耐心,灵巧。她也懂得保护自己。她从母亲身上抓取一些特质,然后创作大蜘蛛,然而,这个启发是经由一段难堪的记忆换来的,从小她与父亲,母亲,及家庭教师住在一块,之后却发现爸爸与女家教有性关系,妈妈却忍受一切,布尔乔亚感受到被这三位她最爱的人背叛,自然的在心理上蕴酿起气愤,妒嫉,与痛苦,渐渐的,她明了妈妈的苦衷,她便开始创作不少版本的蜘蛛,在影片里,她坦承的表白:这传达那一份我爱上母亲性格的讯息。 布尔乔亚说:红是血的颜色。是痛。暴力。危险。羞愧。嫉妒。怨恨。指责的颜色。在在都是极度冒犯的字眼,她用这些来诠绎对红色的记忆,就像在纪录片里,她手握一朵红玫瑰,象征一段爱情的刺痛, "情妇"一词代表父亲的爱人,指的是谁呢?母亲吗?她自己吗?都不是,曾有一次,父亲用橘子皮,插上一根阳具般的东西,制作成一件艺术品,称为"理想的女儿" ,来贬低她的女儿身,这事件刺伤了她.虽然之后她有一段美好的情爱与婚姻,但始终抹不掉对父亲的恨意,她说“我必须对和我们住在一起的父亲情人视而不见,对我母亲的痛苦视而不见,对我姐姐和街对面男人的变态关系视而不见。我的生活充满了疯狂的母性爱。她小时候的沉恸与怆殇,影响她一生的创作,她说:我的童年从未失去它的魔力,失去它的神秘,失去它的戏剧性。她说:"雕塑就是自我的认知的过程吧!"她的作品看上去每每不同,主题却都是相同的:对恐惧的摆脱。在它面前躲藏、逃跑、表现、驱除、耻辱,最后成了对恐惧的恐惧。 亚里斯多德在论及希腊悲剧的本质时,强调藉由同情与恐惧,能产生情绪的净化,类似的,对布尔乔亚而言,当人哭的时候,会显出一付丑陋的脸,但她却认为看着一张不漂亮的脸,可目睹与体会人的恐惧与害怕,可产生怜悯,之后便能轻易的洗去心中的痛与恶魔。布尔乔亚感情相当的丰富,也很脆弱,她经常落泪,很多时候,她将这般难以厘清的情感转移成创作的泉源,她说:我的情绪实在太多,让我很难应付,这就是为什么我把情绪的能量转为雕像的缘故了。蜘蛛,情妇,与橘子,此三样听起来不相干的东西,却在布尔乔亚的生命之中相互串连,缠绕她的一生. 2003年, Louise Bourgeois获得年度的沃尔夫基金奖(Wolf Foundation Prize ),因为在长期的创作生涯里,她的艺术不仅标志着当代美学观念与创作形式的创新,而且丰富了智力的复杂性,促使人们重新思考艺术以及艺术家在现代社会中所应扮演的角色。对大多数人而言, Bourgeois是神秘的,但对Louise Bourgeois来说,神秘永远不是理性的对立面。她的艺术就是要使人们看到理由——"Making people see reason" 。也许,她最吸引的地方正存在于这条格言里。 布尔乔亚说:“只能选择,是接受过去,还是消灭记忆。”。她的工作室是由工厂改装的,有着许多石头。 “在这个工厂,一百年前的男人和女人们,好象偷偷做了些什么”。她谈到身为一个女人的矛盾:"做一名雕塑家,妳必须要有侵略性…作品才能产生独立的风格。"又说: "当一名独特的女人,又想被人喜爱,其实很困难的,渴望被人喜欢是颈上的一种痛。"身为女子,若要在艺术上有独立,挑衅的作风,但又得顾及人们的赞同与拥抱,这份不安全感一直跟随着她,不过,在两者之间产生冲突时,她宁愿选择前者,当代人将她奉为女性主义的偶像,虽然她的艺术大都以女人的角度作出发,但她却认为她的作品反映的是个人的经验,并拒绝这种被窄小化的归类。
