e-flux Screening Room | Film as Curatorial Tool

Screening and Conversation, in English, Brooklyn, 5 October 2024, 5pm to 8pm

Join us at e-flux Screening Room for Film as Curatorial Tool, an afternoon with a selection of our documentaries that were produced in conjunction with exhibitions exploring topics of quality of life, urban development and decay, and ecological design. The screening is followed by a conversation with e-flux film curator Lukas Braiskis and e-flux editor Christina Moushoul who are joined by CCA curators Francesco Garutti and Irene Chin, on the use of film in spatial studies and storytelling.

Program

5pm
Welcome and introduction by Sara Silva, e-flux Architecture

5.10pm
Now, Please Think About Yesterday (2019) 23’, digital, English

A film conceived by Francesco Garutti, and directed by Erin Weisgerber for the exhibition Our Happy Life.

Shot inside the headquarters and call centres of Gallup, the documentary closely observes the processes and the people behind the design and execution of the World Poll—the data released in the highly publicized World Happiness Report.

5.35pm
كیف لا نغرق في السراب / To Remain in the No Longer (2023) 38’, digital and 16mm, Arabic with English subtitles

A film conceived and directed by Joyce Joumaa under the CCA’s Emerging Curator program.

In 1962, Oscar Niemeyer was invited to conceive an international fairground in the city of Tripoli, Lebanon, which was never completed. By examining the precarity of the project site that remains to this day, the film reflects on the country’s current socio-economic crisis.

6.25pm
进岛方向 / Into the Island (2024) 41’, digital, Chinese and English, with English subtitles.

A film conceived by Francesco Garutti and Irene Chin, and directed by Joshua Frank, for the ongoing Groundwork film and exhibition series.

The film follows Xu Tiantian of DnA during preliminary site visits to Meizhou Island. Famous as the site which gave birth to the cult of the sea goddess Mazu, the island is an environment where religious pilgrimages, mass tourism, traditional farming techniques, and strict conservation policies co-exist in a fragile balance.

7.15–8pm
Conversation between Lukas Braiskis, e-flux film curator, Christina Moushoul, e-flux editor, and CCA curators, Irene Chin and Francesco Garutti.

The conversations continue at Bar Laika.

Saturday, 5 October, from 5–8pm
