Three Brazilian artists from Porto Alegre present
their films on the occasion of the
German-Brazilian exhibition "Techné" at Verein
Berliner Künstler. "Minuano" is a strong Southern
wind in the South of Brazil, bringing a cold
stream from the Antarctic, with mostly clear sky,
similar to the Mistral, a falling cold wind in
Southern France. The name Minuano derived from a
native Indigenous landscape but is often quoted
in the popular, colonial Gaucho culture. "Minuano
Visions" presents films and videos different to
the European expectations of tropical culture.
Marina Camargo, who lives in Porto Alegre and
Berlin, works with concepts dealing with
landscape and geography. As contemporary
geography also deals with local history, her
films combine local stories with an artistic
research, which may be called art topologies.
Marina usually records her own footage but she
sometimes also uses found-footage in a style that
is more similar to documentary films using
archive material.
The films of Tula Anagnostopoulos are connected
with memories and personal stories on the verge
of being lost through contemporary culture and
political changes. Some of her films are talking
about the family culture of rural and small city
heritage coming from a German and Greek
emigration background. She is often using
analogue films that are being projected onto
surfaces or changed by the reverb of
re-photographing images.
Daniela Tavora records experiences of her private
life and creates scenes in her personal
surrounding in a kind of guerilla style, and she
sometimes mixes it with found footage from the
internet. It is the personal experience of
youth-culture and her love for horror films and
white trash that influences the films of Daniela.
Also, Brazilian narrative underground movies, a
genre called "Boca do Lixo", play a role in the
style of her experimental video work.
Marina Camargo and Tula Anagnostopoulos will be
present for Q&A. Curated by Klaus W. Eisenlohr
