Rétrospective Chantal Akerman 31 Janvier – 2 Mars 2018
Rétrospective Chantal Akerman 31 janvier – 2 mars 2018 AVEC LE SOUTIEN DE WALLONIE-BRUXELLES INTERNATIONAL ET LE CONCOURS DU CENTRE WALLONIE BRUXELLES Héritière à la fois de la Nouvelle Vague et du cinéma underground américain, l’œuvre de Chantal Akerman explore avec élégance les notions de frontière et de transmission. Ses films vont de l’essai expérimental (Hotel Monterey), aux récits de la solitude (Jeanne Dielman), en passant par des comédies à l’humour triste (Un divan à New York) et les somptueuses adaptations de classiques littéraires (Proust pour La Captive). CONFÉRENCE et DIALOGUES “CHANTAL AKERMAN : L’ESPACE PENDANT UN CERTAIN TEMPS” PAR JÉRÔME MOMCILOVIC je 01 fév 19h Chantal Akerman a dit souvent son étonnement face à cette formule banale, qui nous vient parfois pour exprimer le plaisir pris un film : ne pas voir le temps passer. De l’appartement du premier film (Saute ma ville, 1968) a celui du dernier (No Home Movie, 2015), des rues traversées par la fiction (Toute une nuit) a celles longées par le documentaire (D’Est), ses films ont suivi une morale rigoureusement inverse : regarder le temps, pour mieux voir l’espace, et nous le faire habiter ainsi en compagnie de tous les fantômes qui le hantent. A la suite de la conférence, à 21h30, projection d’un film choisi par le conférencier : News from Home. Jerome Momcilovic est critique de cinema, responsable des pages cinéma du magazine Chronic’art. Il est l’auteur chez Capricci de Prodiges d’Arnold Schwarzenegger (2016) et, en février 2018, d’un essai sur le cinema de Chantal Akerman Dieu se reposa, mais pas nous. -
It's Not Just an Image
and geographical surroundings. The most obvious example of this approach may be found in News From Home (1976), in which shots of mostly empty New York streets are accompanied on the soundtrack by the director reading excerpts of letters from her mother back in Bel It’s Not Just gium. Whether in “fiction” films like Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 10800 Bruxelles (1975) or Toute Une Nuit (1982) or diaristic films such as Je tu il elle (1974) or Hotel Monterey (1972), Akerman manages to consistently integrate different, yet complementary, ways of seeing into each film. The installation is divided into three sections. In the first, the spectator enters a an Image room in which the film D ’Est is projected continuously. In the second, twenty-four television monitors, divided into eight triptychs, fragment various sequences from the film. In the last room, a single monitor features a shot moving down a winter street, at night, with Akerman’s voice reading from a biblical text in Hebrew as well as selections from her own notes in En glish and French. The installation is, to use Akerman’s own term, a “translation” of many of the ele A Conversation with ments of the film into another context. In fact, one is struck by the filmmaker’s description of these elements—faces, streets, cars, food, and so on—as a kind of anthology, an attempt to describe a place in which she is a visitor. “I’d like to shoot everything.” But it was not that simple. Before any footage for DEst was shot, Akerman made a Chantal Akerman trip to Russia, where despite the obvious differences of language and culture, she felt “at home.” She attributed this to her personal history: Her parents had emigrated from Poland to Belgium, where she grew up. -

Following her death, the director Todd Haynes dedicated the screening of his latest movie, Carol (2015), to Akerman at the New York Film Festival, stating that ‘as someone thinking about female subjects and how they’re depicted’ her work had changed the ways in which he thought about, and imagined, film.

Remake: Chantal Akerman's and John Smith's Plays on Reality
EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF MEDIA STUDIES www.necsus-ejms.org Remake: Chantal Akerman’s and John Smith’s plays on reality Clara Miranda Scherffig NECSUS 5 (1), Spring 2016: 19–39 URL: https://necsus-ejms.org/remake-chantal-akerman-john- smiths-plays-reality/ Keywords: autoethnography, Chantal Akerman, hyperrealism, John Smith, materialist film, remake, structural film Introduction According to the Oxford Dictionary a remake is the action of making some- thing again or differently, as well as a film or a music piece that has been recorded again. The construction of Chantal Akerman’s News From Home (1976) and John Smith’s The Man Phoning Mum (2011) can be traced back to the same practice. For the purpose of this discussion I consider the concept of the remake in terms of its elements of repetition and the fundamental presupposition of a viewership. Both authors deal with a re-recording of a previous experience: Smith’s can be properly regarded as a filmic event, while Akerman’s is rather a personal one. The remake’s act of repetition at the basis of both films is found at different stages of the filmmaking prac- tice (in the conception stage for Akerman and during development for Smith, as will be detailed later). When considered within a broader debate on intertextuality the analogy with the remake offers a useful framework to understand the relationship of both films with the topic of reality as well as their link with ‘the infinite and open-ended possibilities generated by all the discursive practices of a [film] culture’.[1] Finally, the idea of the remake is here relevant for what it presupposes in terms of audience engagement; in order to exist a remake needs a spectatorship to acknowledge it as such NECSUS – EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF MEDIA STUDIES according to its intertextual legacies.[2] In light of such a mutual condition both films trigger crucial reactions in the viewer for their very unfoldment. -

UNIVERSIDAD DE CUENCA Facultad de Filosofía, Letras y Ciencias de la Educación Carrera de Cine y Audiovisuales La auto- representación y la comedia en el cine contemporáneo hecho por mujeres Trabajo de titulación previo a la obtención del Título de Licenciada en Cine y Audiovisuales Autora: Ana Cristina Franco Varea CI.1721587036 Director: Mag. Galo Alfredo Torres Palchisaca CI. 0101863595 Cuenca - Ecuador 20/09/2019 Universidad de Cuenca RESUMEN Este trabajo de investigación analiza la estrecha relación entre la comedia y la auto- representación femenina en el cine hecho por mujeres. Estudia el proceso de las narrativas, tanto en el área del feminismo vinculado al cine como en el de la comedia, hasta que ambas tendencias se juntan confluyendo en cuatro autoras audiovisuales contemporáneas: Lena Dunham, Malena Pichot, Phoebe Mary Waller-Bridge y Greta Gerwig. A lo largo de la historia del cine, la mayoría de personajes femeninos cómicos han sido creados por hombres; así como la mayoría de directores de comedia han sido hombres. Aunque ha habido pocas mujeres comediantes, sólo pocas han asumido la auto- representación para implantar una mirada propia en su discurso narrativo. La metodología utilizada fue la revisión bibliográfica relacionada con teoría feminista vinculada al cine así como la teoría sobre los orígenes de la comedia. También la observación y análisis de cuatro obras audiovisuales cada una perteneciente a las cuatro autoras elegidas. Las conclusiones a las que se llega permiten deducir que la comedia de mujeres es uno de los géneros más temidos por el imaginario masculino, pues permite hacer de la mujer un personaje real y humano y ya no un fetiche y/o ideal o fantasía masculina. -
Hummel De L'autre Côté
onlinejournal kultur & geschlecht #22 (2019) 1 H u m m e l De l‘autre côté An der Grenze zwischen Dokumentation und Fiktion: Migration als Diskursfeld in Chantal Akermans De l‘autre côté Hannah Hummel Nachdem sie ihren ersten Film Saute ma ville 1968 mit 18 Jahren veröffentlicht, lernt die in Brüssel geborene Chantal Akerman während eines New York Aufenthalts Anfang der 1970er Jahre Vertreter_innen der US- amerikanischen Filmavantgarde, darunter Stan Brakhage, Michael Snow und Jonas Mekas, kennen. Mit Hotel Monterey und La chambre aus dem Jahr 1972 sowie News from home von 1977 entstehen Strukturfilme, in denen die Kameraführung Vorgehensweisen aus dem minimalistischen Tanz übernimmt.1 1 Akerman arbeitet hierfür mit der Kamerafrau Babette Mangolte zusammen, die zur selben Zeit vornehmlich Aufführungen von Vertreter_innen des Judson Dance Theater sowohl fotografisch als auch filmisch dokumentiert. Die Schnittstelle des Werks von Akerman und der filmischen Arbeit Yvonne Rainers, die ebenfalls mit Mangolte kollaboriert, hebt Ivone Margulies hervor. Ihre Veröffentlichung Nothing Happens. Chantal Akerman’s Hyperrealist Everyday ist als erste und bisher einzige Monografie zu Akermans Œuvre 1996 erschienen und situiert Akermans Schaffen zwischen den Traditionen der von Peter Wollen aufgemachten zwei Avantgarden – der US-amerikanischen Avantgarde der frühen 1960er Jahre und der französischen Nouvelle Vague. Margulies begründet diese Einordnung in ihrer umfangreichen Werkanalyse unter anderem mit der Herausarbeitung des feministischen Narrativs -
The Multiple Faces of Chantal Akerman
Introduction: the multiple faces of Chantal Akerman One of Europe’s most acclaimed and prolific contemporary directors – critic J. Hoberman calls her ‘comparable in force and originality to Godard or Fassbinder … arguably the most important European director of her generation’ (Hoberman 1991: 148) –, Chantal Akerman is also one notoriously difficult to classify. The director came to promi- nence with Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975), her minimalist portrait of a Belgian housewife and daytime prostitute which, overnight, brought the twenty-four-year-old interna- tional recognition and placed her at the centre of debates surrounding women’s cinema and feminist film-making. At its commercial release in 1976, the French daily Le Monde hailed the movie, which runs to a demanding 3 hours and 20 minutes in length, ‘le premier chef d’œuvre au féminin de l’histoire du cinéma’1 (Marcorelles 1976); the influential New York newspaperVillage Voice has since rated it among the one hundred best films of the twentieth century. More than thirty years on, Akerman has authored over forty films, straddling a wide range of genres – burlesque and romantic comedy, epistolary film, musical, experimental documentary, video installation – and embracing such diverse thematic concerns as coming of age and adolescent crisis, the construction of gender and sexual identities, wandering and exile, Jewish culture and memory. Strongly indebted to 1970s experimental film-making, she has gradu- ally ventured into more commercial cinema, but remains -
Passages Through Time and Space: in Memory of Chantal Akerman

Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/OCTO_a_00247 by guest on 29 September 2021 Passages through Time and Space: In Memory of Chantal Akerman GIULIANA BRUNO What viewer of Jeanne Dielman, 23, Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles has not been affected or even changed by the experience of watching this film? With the minimal simplicity of precisely framed “long takes,” Chantal Akerman’s break - through film, made in 1975, when she was only twenty-five, exposed the strictures of women’s time and space while creating a new cinematic language of observa - tion and a filmic longue durée . At age eighteen, Akerman had already made an explosive start with Saute ma ville (1968), directing herself, shut away and alone in her apartment, blowing up rituals of domesticity and, in the end, blowing herself up, together with her home. Personally full of life and energy but haunted by the dark specter of severe psychic pain, Akerman began her fictional journey with a defiant act of self-destruction that would come to be realized years later, when her life ended suddenly at age sixty-five. Akerman enriched our world through an extraordinarily ordinary journey com - posed of images, of places, perceptively explored and executed within a formally rig - orous aesthetic. Cities, lands, and homes are intimately portrayed in her frontal long takes, which capture the passing of everyday life—especially that of women—as they intensify our sense of time, memory, and space. -
Bamcinématek Presents Chantal Akerman: Images Between the Images, Apr 1—May 1
BAMcinématek presents Chantal Akerman: Images Between the Images, Apr 1—May 1 One of the most comprehensive retrospectives of Chantal Akerman’s work to be exhibited in the US Opens with the NY premiere run of the filmmaker’s final work, No Home Movie “A pioneer of modernist feminist cinema” —The Guardian “Arguably the most important European director of her generation” —Village Voice The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Mar 1, 2016/Brooklyn, NY—From Friday, April 1, through Sunday, May 1, BAMcinématek presents Chantal Akerman: Images Between the Images. Following the untimely passing of the great filmmaker last October, Chantal Akerman (1950—2015) will be honored via cinematic tribute around New York City. In a career that began in the late 1960s, Akerman quickly carved out a place in cinema for a female, avant garde filmmaker compelled to tell personal and intimate stories. Preferring long takes, and the drama of day to day life, her films resonated with progressive audiences. BAMcinématek is proud to honor the artist with a month-long tribute anchored by the New York premiere run of a film The New York Times called “candid and open-hearted,” Akerman’s crowning film, No Home Movie (2015—Apr 1—14). Chantal Akerman’s final film, No Home Movie is a portrait of her relationship with her mother, Natalia, a Holocaust survivor and familiar presence in many of Akerman’s films. The film fixates on Natalia’s world inside her Brussels apartment, with only glimpses of the hustle and bustle just outside her window.
