Rencontres/Projections à la Collection Lambert

I had nowhere to go

April 5 – 15:30 p.m.
Screening / Meeting with Douglas Gordon, Jonas Mekas

As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposal by Pascale Cassagnau for the Lambert Collection.
With the film I Had Nowhere to Go, a free adaptation of Jonas Mekas' autobiographical story, Douglas Gordon highlights the filmmaker's own time and method and creates a cinematic portrait. This portrait exercise is close to the first opus devoted to an unclassifiable figure of the 2004st century, Zidane, A Portrait of the XNUMXst Century made with Philippe Parreno in XNUMX



Dancehall
May 3 – 15:30 p.m.
Screening / Meeting with Cecilia Bengolea

As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposal by Pascale Cassagnau for the Lambert Collection.
In Cécilia Bengoléa's work, dancing bodies, sculpted bodies, ghostly digital bodies, and athletic bodies are all part of the logic of infinite, repeated, and different metamorphoses, working to express these differences (economic-social, sexual, cultural) in order to develop their comparative grammars. Their inscription in the landscape, in architecture, in the precise ecosystem of Latin America and the Caribbean gives them a true indexical status.



The Disparates, A Slow Introduction
June 7 – 15:30 p.m.
Screening / Meeting with Cesar Vayssié, Boris Charmatz

As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposal by Pascale Cassagnau for the Lambert Collection.
The film “Une lente introduction” is a 35mm reinterpretation of the original piece Herses (A Slow Introduction). The artist Gilles Touyard designed the floor, providing a spatial reference within the absolute blackness that surrounds the active surface of the dance. Hypnotically, bodies meet, tangle, and wrap themselves in a slowness carried by silence that exposes the impermanence of the figures. The film, like the choreographed version, strives to develop three utopias: that of the subject, that of the couple, and that of the community.



Summer games
October 4 – 15:30 p.m.
Screening / Meeting with Ezster Salamon

As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposal by Pascale Cassagnau for the Lambert Collection.
Through very precise editing and framing, the film perfectly incorporates into its dramaturgy the tensions that result from the confrontation between the body and architecture, a metaphor for the resistance of art to what constrains the subjects.



Sound & Spontaneous Expression Workshop
November 8 – 15:30 p.m.
Screening / Meeting with Vincent Epplay

As part of the Les Yeux Verts project, proposal by Pascale Cassagnau for the Lambert Collection.
Vincent Epplay's work consists of sound pieces that lie somewhere between pure sound creation – his work is close to experimental music in this respect – and video creation in its experimental aspect (working with filmic space with found-footage images, collage and the reuse of found films referring to early cinema). For Vincent Epplay, the phenomenon of reworking and collage constitutes a methodical work of experimentation, based on the reappropriation of ready-made sound and visual compositions without qualities, by compiling various vernacular documents.



One Two, Many
December 6 – 15:30 p.m.

Screening / Meeting with Manon de Boer
In Manon de Boer's work, spaces multiply levels of meaning and narrative, weaving together relationships of uncertainty that define a disidentified cinema, distanced from itself. Such is the quality and strength of contemporary filmic spaces: their quality as inchoate objects makes them spaces for the complex deciphering of plural, fragmentary, heterogeneous stories.
