kestnerfilm

We occasionally show films parallel to our exhibitions. Alexander Kluge’s »The Artists under the big Top: Perplexed«, made in 1968, was presented in conjunction with Elke Krystufek’s exhibition LESS MALE ART. David LaChapelle’s »Rize« was screened in cooperation with the Hochhaus-Lichtspiele, and a film project also took place at the kestnergesellschaft with the Hanover-based director Franziska Stünkel (Vineta).

The interactive screenplay project »Tell me their story«, which took place in August 2010, was the beginning of a series developed with Franziska Stünkel. During the next two years the path from idea to completed film will be traced in four blocks of talks, film screenings, exhibitions and readings focusing on the medium of film. Well-known film professionals working in the areas of screenwriting, directing, cinematography and film architecture will be invited to the kestnergesellschaft. The series kestner film will be a comparative examination of the visual languages of art and film.
