Aziz Hazara (*1992) bedient sich in seinen Werken einer Vielzahl von künstlerischen Medien: von partizipatorischen Installationen bis zu Klanglandschaften, von Video bis Fotografie, von Text bis zu programmierten Sprachen. Sein Interesse an Fragen der Erinnerung, des Archivs, der Überwachung, des Panoptikums und der Politik der Repräsentation ist tief in der Geopolitik und dem nicht enden wollenden Konflikt verwurzelt, die sein Heimatland Afghanistan bis heute prägen. Seine Arbeiten, die die Beziehung zwischen unterschiedlichsten Dichotomien wie Nähe und Distanz, Migration und Erinnerung, Leben und Tod, Realität und Fiktion oder Krieg und Frieden thematisieren, versuchen die geografischen Besonderheiten zu überwinden, um so allgemeingültige Metaphern der Gegenwart zu schaffen.Die Publikation stellt aktuelle Arbeiten des Künstlers vor, darunter auch seine hochgelobte Video-Installation ¿Bow Echö, die fünf Jungen in einer Landschaft nahe Kabul zeigt, die gegen starken Wind versuchen, in eine Spielzeugtröte zu blasen, während immer wieder die Geräusche von sich nähernden Drohnen zu hören sind.

Llega el esperado y ansiado primer libro de no ficción de Quentin Tarantino. Su libro más personal: un viaje íntimo por sus películas favoritas, relatado con una voz inconfundible. Probablemente, Quentin Tarantino sea uno de los mayores cineastas de la historia, pero de lo que no hay atisbo de duda es de que estamos hablando del espectador que mejor puede contagiar su pasión entusiasta por las películas que ha visto. Ahora, por fin llega el libro con el que tantos años soñaron él y sus seguidores. En Meditaciones de cine, Tarantino analiza desde los puntos de vista más insólitos y con su particular conocimiento enciclopédico varias películas clave del cine norteamericano de los setenta, todas ellas vistas en su más tierna infancia (de las más violentas a las más tórridas), así como revisitadas compulsivamente. El resultado es una obra tan rigurosa y reflexiva como juguetona y entretenida. Meditaciones de cine es, a la vez, crítica cinematográfica, teoría del cine, reportaje literario y unas memorias formidables, a la altura de clásicos del género como los de Hitchcock y Truffaut o Luis Buñuel. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The long-awaited first work of nonfiction from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Time in Hollywood a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino. In addition to being among the most celebrated of contemporary filmmakers, Quentin Tarantino is possibly the most joyously infectious movie lover alive. For years he has touted in interviews his eventual turn to writing books about films. Now, with Cinema Speculation, the time has come, and the results are everything his passionate fans--and all movie lovers--could have hoped for. Organized around key American films from the 1970s, all of which he first saw as a young moviegoer at the time, this book is as intellectually rigorous and insightful as it is rollicking and entertaining. At once film criticism, film theory, a feat of reporting, and wonderful personal history, it is all written in the singular voice recognizable immediately as QT's and with the rare perspective about cinema possible only from one of the greatest practitioners of the artform ever.

This book retells the history of Israeli film in the 1960s and 1970s in sex scenes. Through close readings of the first sex scenes in mainstream Israeli movies from this period, it explores the cultural and social contexts in which these movies were made. More specifically, it discusses how notions of collective identity, individual agency, and the public and private spheres are inscribed into and negotiated in sex scenes, especially in light of the historical events that marked these decades. This study thus pushes away from the traditional academic perception of Israeli film and opens up new ways of understanding how it has developed in recent decades. It draws on a growing international body of academic literature on the cinematic representation of sex in order to illuminate the particularities of the Israeli context in the 1960s and 1970s. Apart from film scholars and scholars of Israeli film, this study also addresses readers interested in Israeli cultural history more broadly.

Emília Rigová bezieht sich in ihren Arbeiten auf die Geschichte und Gegenwart gesellschaftlicher Minderheiten, die von hegemonialen Diskursen ausgeschlossen sind. Sie thematisiert deren kollektive Erinnerungen, aktuelle Anliegen, Visionen und Perspektiven in Installationen, Videos, Performances und Fotografien. Vor dem Hintergrund ihrer eigenen Biografie konzentriert sich Rigová in ihrem OEuvre der vergangenen Jahre auf die Geschichte sowie die Gegenwartserfahrungen der Roma und deren eigene wie fremdbestimmte Identitätsbilder. Ihre Arbeiten basieren auf gesellschaftsbezogener Forschung und Analyse und sind mitunter als Performances und Installationen im öffentlichen Raum auch als Formen von politischem Aktivismus zu verstehen. Eines der Ziele ist dabei die Dekonstruktion stereotyper, von der Mehrheitsgesellschaft bestimmter gesellschaftlicher Rollenbilder und Vorurteile. Text: Karola Kraus, Nina Vrbanova.

As one of the most ingenious artists of the silent film era, Buster Keaton stands out for his legendary comedies. While drawing on vaudeville traditions, he also knew how to exploit techniques the new medium film offered to create ¿ visually surprising ¿ comic situations, many of which became an unforgettable part of film history. Transferring and adapting his theatrical skills to the screen, he invented a whole new repertoire of aesthetic devices. Numerous elements of his approach to the art of mise-en-scène would turn up again, albeit in modified and more radical forms, in dramatic theories and plays of playwrights such as Bertolt Brecht, Luigi Pirandello, Eugène Ionesco, Samuel Beckett, and Antonin Artaud. This study looks at how Buster Keaton anticipated an aesthetic multiplicity that would come to shape dramatic concepts, the art of representation, and the language of performance in modern European theatre.
