The summer excursion will take place at the Cannes Film Festival. Accreditations will grant us access to the entire festival including the Main Competition, Un Certain Regard, the Acid and the Directors’ Fortnight.
We will focus on the last one as Julien Rejl’s program last year brought us wonderful first feature films such as Thien An Pham’s Inside the Yellow Cocoon Shell and Ilya Povolotsky’s Grace which we have studied during the Reflexive Camera Seminar.
Cannes’ programme offers a myriad of events and depending on what is scheduled we will also be able to attend masterclasses, the market side of the festival, and numerous gatherings for which it is strongly recommended to adopt Cannes’ dress code i.e.: wear black shades and shiny shoes in order to accidentally manage to bump into the producer, director or actor/tress of your dreams.

Die Manifesta ist die europäische Nomadenbiennale. Sie wechselt alle zwei Jahre ihre Position innerhalb Europas. Ausgehend von ihrem proklamierten Anliegen und ihrer Förderstruktur kann sie als eine Art soziales Projekt verstanden werden, das sich mittels Kunst mit städtischen Strukturen beschäftigt, mit diesen interagiert, Veränderungen ermöglicht oder zumindest anregt. Ein besonderes Augenmerk wird auf dem Zusammenspiel zwischen den öffentlichen Räumen der Stadt und der künstlerisch, zum Teil (raum)forschenden Ansätzen der Ausstellenden gelegt.
Das proklamierte Ziel der Manifesta 15 ist es, dringende öffentliche Debatten zu erörtern, die sich um folgende Themen drehen: Demokratisierung des öffentlichen Lebens und die Verteidigung des öffentlichen Raums angesichts der Privatisierung; die Notwendigkeit, sozialen Fortschritt mit ökologischen Herausforderungen zu verbinden, heißt auch die Fragilität und Prekarität in Bezug auf Wohnraum, zum Personenverkehr zu bedenken, die Kapital, Daten und wirtschaftliche sowie ökologische Krisen schaffen.
Im Rahmen der Exkursion werden wir unerwartete Ausstellungsorte besuchen, viel davon auch in der Metropolenregion Barcelonas, und in Dialog mit den Veranstalter*innen und Personen der lokalen Kunstszene treten.
