Schindler’s pioneering work in southern California founds a particular branch of architectonic Modernism. All of the photography took place in May 2006. The film therefore offers a current portrait of urban living in Los Angeles that has never been documented in this form before. 30 “In 1975 I came by chance upon the Lovell House in Newport Beach.

It was a real workhorse in those days. Klaus Wyborny: I bought it at a pawn shop in Hamburg on Hansaplatz for 2000 D- marks with the three included lenses. E: But I had a zoom lens. W: I bought that later. When I noticed that one had very limited possibilities for filming with those three included lenses, the 10, the 26 and the 75. And I would have liked to have a lens somewhere in between. E: Of course the Schenec-Tady films wouldn’t have been possible at all without the zoom lens, because I drew these focal length values onto it and composed that way. W: I shot Die Geburt der Nation in Morocco with the camera. After I returned I got to know you more distinctly. You had asked if you could borrow it at some point. Then you showed me the script. Then I thought, this certainly won’t do the camera any good. E: Not only that. It broke. We had to have it repaired. The shutter was completely wasted after maybe 20,000 single frames. W: If one looks at this score here. Oh, the things one does for art. But the camera isn’t holy. E: Did you know then that this was art? The relationship between film and art was indeed somewhat tense back then.

  • Rude & Playful Shadows: Collective Performances of Cinema in Cold
    Rude & Playful Shadows: Collective Performances of Cinema in Cold War Europe by Megan E Hoetger A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Performance Studies and the Designated Emphases in Critical Theory and Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Shannon Jackson, Chair Julia Bryan-Wilson Abigail De Kosnik Anton Kaes Spring 2019 Abstract Rude & Playful Shadows: Collective Performances of Cinema in Cold War Europe by Megan E Hoetger Doctor of Philosophy in Performance Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Shannon Jackson, Chair “Rude & Playful Shadows: Collective Performances of Cinema in Cold War Europe” is a historical examination, which engages rigorous discursive and performance-based analysis of underground film screening events that crossed the West/East divide and brought together an international group of artists and filmmakers during some of the “hottest” years of the Cold War period. At its center, the study investigates the practices of two pioneering filmmakers, Austrian Kurt Kren (b. Vienna, 1929; d. Vienna, 1998) and German Birgit Hein (b. Berlin, 1942). Tracking their aesthetic, ideological, and spatial reconfigurations of the cinematic apparatus—their “performances of cinema”—in Austria and former West Germany, the dissertation demonstrates how Kren and Hein were progenitors of influential new viewing practices that operated in the tacit geopolitical interstices between nation- states and underground cultures. Contemporary art, film, and media scholarship tends to move in one of two directions: either toward aesthetic inquiries into the appearance of moving images and other time-based arts in the visual art museum since the 1990s, or toward the politics of global media distribution in the digital age.
