This month's 'Critical Cinema presents...' brings us a wonderful selection
of work from six Rio de Janeiro based video artists.
The Spirit of Rio (Simone Michelin, 2007)
The video is an aleatory and dream-like documentary of events that
occurred in Rio de Janeiro from 2004 to 2007. A meta-narrative, the film
comments in its proper constitution as documentary while it refers to art
history and to the role of the image in the constitution of what we
consider reality.
Insertion II, Insertion III (Aleteia Daneluz, 2009 - 2010)
A series of work in development in which the artist uses her body to
experience various spaces and landscapes
War Games (Bob N and Moises Alcuna, 2009)
In 2009 Bob N and Moises Alcuna compounded pre-existing projects and
produced a video that recreates the original painting Jogos de Guerra (War
Games).
Untitled (Bruna Lobo, 2008)
The film depicts the making of a human sculpture from clay and the process
of dissolving it in water
Red Landscapes (Evandro Machado, 2008)
The imaginary landscape of this
stop motion animation was created using paper scraps from Machado's
studio.
