María Barea
February 18, 2025
The Film Gallery is pleased to host a new discussion around the collective work Cinématérialismes: Nouvelles approches matérialistes de l'audiovisuel, published by Mimésis in 2024.
Éric Thouvenel, professor at the University of Paris Nanterre and author of the text “Matérialités invisibles et intangibles” in cinema, will join the editors of the book for a conversation. With Cinématérialismes aiming to reframe the description of the visual and sonic materiality of images within a critical approach that considers the socio-political dimensions of production—technical, economic, and ecological—the discussion at The Film Gallery will focus on materialist practices in cinema and their potential political implications.
The event will also include a screening of the experimental documentary short film Quiet Zone (2014) by Karl Lemieux and David Bryant.
