The term “film” has several meanings. For instance, it refers to the material that is inserted into a camera or the product that is created: a sequence of images that we can perceive as a result – the exhibition Film is dedicated to both of these aspects.
The conceptual and structuralist works approach the technical conditions of production, address the seemingly fluid transition from still to moving image and play with abstraction.
The exhibition leaflet, with floor plan and the list of works, can be found here.
