Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond, Oktober 31st, 2014.
The initial idea to make a portrait of Charles Blondin, the famed tightrope walker and ropedancer of the 19th century, developed into a reflection of and fascination of the abyss and the abyssal.
This is a fragment of the soundtrack that will accompany our film "Dizziness Is My Name".
Writer Anna Kim's lecture retraces the life of photographer Edith Tudor-Hart (née Edith Suschitzky 1908, in Vienna, died 1973 in Brighton), who worked as a Soviet agent and photographed workers and street children from Vienna and London to give a face to poverty and social disadvantage.
The workshop will shed new light on disorientation and on how film artists throughout history use (optical) disorientation and confusion as a paradigm in their work. What can be gained by losing one’s grip, by simply letting go? What pictures arise with dizziness?
Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond take Dizziness–A Resource to the classroom.
Dizziness, Anxiety, and Climate Action. Reflecting the Possibilities of Artistic Research from the Viewpoint of the Compossible Space.
