    1 Het International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR) toont de nieuwste onafhankelijke en vernieuwende films uit de wereld en is een platform voor actuele filmkunst, opkomend en gevestigd filmtalent en filmgerelateerde kunst. Naast de vertoning van films steunt het filmfestival actief de totstandkoming van auteurscinema en de deskundigheid van filmtalent, de onafhankelijke filmindustrie en filmkritiek. Een internationale coproductiemarkt (CineMart), een fonds voor filmmakers in ontwikkelingslanden (Hubert Bals Fonds), trainingprojecten (Rotterdam Lab, Trainee Project for Young Film Critics) en debatten voor filmprofessionals maken deel uit van het filmfestival. Behalve via het filmfestival en de internationale activiteiten van Hubert Bals Fonds en CineMart, zorgt de Stichting Filmfestival Rotterdam ervoor dat de kunstzinnige film in Nederland op andere wijzen te zien blijft: via de filmtheaters (Rotterdam en route), op dvd (Tiger Releases) en televisie (NPS Wereldcinema). Op landelijk, regionaal en lokaal niveau brengt IFFR studenten en scholieren in contact met onafhankelijke filmkunst via de Rotterdam Film Course, Meet the Maestro, Filmblik Rotterdam en schoolvoorstellingen.

  • [Western] Ukrainian Media Art of the Late 1980S and Early 1990S VOL
    ESSAY Transgressions and the Search for New Meaning [Western] Ukrainian Media Art of the late 1980s and early 1990s VOL. 105 (MAY 2020) BY BOHDAN SHUMYLOVYCH Video art as a conscious practice appeared in Lviv, the biggest city in Western Ukraine, in 1993. Artworks produced that year became the quintessence of the artistic processes of the late 1980s and early 1990s, when the Ukrainian SSR painfully but irrevocably turned into Ukraine. It is not surprising that critics have noted that art of that time was dictated by a need for transgression. Artworks produced in Lviv in 1993 showed artists rethinking the role of the work of art and its relationship with the ‘social body’, and in many works we can observe the process of transformation or transgression, most starkly apparent in video. This essay is an attempt to retrace and rethink the transgressive character of Ukrainian video art. Video Art and Medium Specificity Art historian Oliver Grau has indicated that in order to work with current media phenomena it is essential to understand history: “The present image revolution, which indeed uses new technologies and has also developed a large number of so far unknown visual expressions, cannot be conceived of without our image history.”​1​ But when we consider European image history, we also encounter certain incongruities. Periodization of art history, and the emergence and medium specificity of video, has been understood differently in different parts of Europe. Marita Sturken acknowledged this:​2​ The assumption that the aesthetics of video is a direct result of its properties leads us into technologically determinist terrain yet again.

    Yashwant Intl. Film Festival 2015 Yashwantrao Chavan The birth centenary of Shri Yashwantrao Chavan (1913 - 1984) was celebrated last year in a befitting manner by the Government of Maharashtra and the Yashwantrao Chavan Pratishthan, Mumbai. It was an acknowledgement of his stellar contribution as first Chief Minister to the making of modern Maharashtra, as a State with progressive policies and a decentralized democratic set up of administration. In November, 1962, he became the Defence Minister in the aftermath of the India-China conflict. He worked hard to restore the morale of the armed forces and to enhance his strength through modern weapons, better equipment, organisational changes and a harmonious relationship with the armed forces. The efforts paid off in the India- Pakistan conflict in 1965. Subsequently, he held the high offices of Union Home Minister, Union Finance Minister and Foreign Minister of India. In 1979, he became the Deputy Prime Minister of India. He was a freedom fighter, effective parliamentarian and an astute administrator. He was a connoisseur of fine arts, a great lover of books and an author of acknowledged literary merit. He was very fond of watching good films, plays and stage performances of folk-art. The 'Yashwant' International Film Festival is a tribute to the outstanding personay of Yashwantrao Chavan. Yashwant Intl.
