WEDNESDAY | 08 MAY

20:00 | OPENING SCREENING


Digital avatars take the spotlight in all three films opening art+film+vienna 2024. Total Refusal, awarded with the European Film Award 2023, examine the uncanny yet surreal humoristic void, that is created by the absence of a certain group of protagonists in the virtual world of a popular video game. Andy Holden recreates an artist otherwise lost to oblivion and speculates about her personal inner kingdom. Finally Ryan Woodring’s digital creature blurs the line between the digital and the analog realm.

21:00 | CHANGES OF PERSPECTIVE


How to portray botanical agency? Janelle VanderKelen lets us understand that time and therefore movement are measured differently in the realm of plants. But plants are not the only organisms this screening block focuses on. Pigeons often misunderstood as dull birds are portraited in their own words. Still human perception is by choice of the medium in focus of all films and in particular in Victoria Halper’s Floating Flies. Of course nature and mankind’s creations are sometimes in conflict, probably making some de-construction necessary.

19:00 | IN SEARCH FOR MEANING


Did you ever wonder what a symbiotic collaboration between Aki Kaurismäki and Wes Anderson would look like? After having seen Groundapple we have a supposition. Very different narrative approaches result in related images depicting a city’s light emitting vedute in the Sower of Stars and Desert Bloom. Finally time and narratives are intersected in Ken Sackheim’s Always, Already.

19:00 | HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT


They are literally everywhere, some even found states others are typical hemerophiles or cultural followers yet often they live hidden from human perception. Vera Sebert creates images and sounds addressing the silent disappearance of biodiversity and shere biomass in the kingdom of insects. Maud Faivre and Marceau Boré take a close look at what current experiments on insects allow us to speculate about thier partly highly complex abilities and finally Federica Foglia juxtoposes vintage erotica with entomological footage resulting in nightmarish beauty.
