Albrecht Schnider - Beyond the vanished

How up to date is the strive for the "truth" of a painting? Does the digital media overload still allow a close look at a picture and its reflection in our own sensations?

The artist portrait "Albrecht Schnider - Bis das Bild mich anschaut" tells of the intimate, occasionally agonizing struggle for every picture.

SCRAP

Documentary 80 Min., Production Year 2017, Premiere early 2019

Sabine Hertig (1982*) combines diverse print media and merges them till the extent of full immersion. She visualizes todays vast, yet ephemeral collective visual memory - she even manages to fathom the chaos of the internet. At distance, the visual structure of her work creates the impression of a painting, which gradually dissolves into subtle mosaic of scraps when viewed up close. Its a playful discourse on the boundaries between visibility and the realm of things invisible.

[x]Offside Istanbul

documentary

Year of production: 2015

Every day, African footballers are washed ashore in the dazzling megacity of Istanbul. They arrive at the Bosporus, driven by their dream of a life as a star and attracted by fals promises. The dream turns into tough reality. And the football career is far from sight.

The young Swiss filmmaker Jonas Schaffter accompanied some of these football talents for over six months. His movie tells a story not only of desolation, but also of strong personalities, their zest for life and unshakeable hope.
