Thursday, 19 November 2020, 18:00. Illegal_Cinema, Session 89. Special session proposed by the six coordinators of Illegal_Cinema.<\/b><\/p>\n
We would like to commemorate the tenth anniversary of Bulegoa z\/b with a double programme dedicated to Illegal_Cinema, in collaboration with ZINEBI<\/a>: a special session of Cine_ilegal, No. 89, at Bulegoa at z\/b, proposed by all the coordinators, past and present, of the sessions in Bilbao; and secondly, a screening at the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum of Yugoslavia. How Ideology Moved Our Collective Body<\/i><\/a> (2013) by Marta Popivoda, the initiator of Illegal_Cinema. This will be followed by a conversation with Isabel de Naver\u00e1n.<\/p>\n PROGRAMME<\/b><\/p>\n Sunday 15 November 2020, 19:00 Monday 16 November 2020, 17:00 Thursday, 19 November 2020, 18:00 <\/p>\n ABOUT ILLEGAL_CINEMA<\/b><\/p>\n Soon after the opening of our first office in December 2010, we invited Marta Popivoda and Ana Vujanovi\u0107 to speak about Walking Theory<\/a>\u2013TkH [Teorija koja Hoda], an independent, extra-academic platform based in Belgrade and made up of theoreticians and artists working with performance, theatre, visual arts and film. The platform was set up in 2000 following the wars in what was then Yugoslavia, and we saw affinities between TkH and what we were hoping to do at Bulegoa z\/b, which was to build bridges between the practice of art and theoretical reflection.<\/p>\n On their first visit to Bulegoa z\/b, Popivoda presented Illegal_Cinema<\/a>, a programme set up by her in Belgrad in 2007, which since then has travelled to other cities; Zagreb and Istanbul held special editions of the event in 2008\u20132009, and regular screenings have been held at Les Laboratoires d\u2019Aubervilliers, Paris since 2010. In December that year sessions began in Bilbao, which is the only city where they still run.<\/p>\n Over the ten years of our existence, Cine_Ilegal has made its contribution to how we work here. But what is it? In the words of the coordinators of our sessions:<\/p>\n \u201cCine_Ilegal works simply. Someone proposes a film. This can be any kind of audiovisual document except for the person’s own work (\u2026). We get together. There’s a presentation and then we watch what they have proposed as we should. At the end of the screening, we have enthusiastic conversations about it.\u201d (Pablo Marte, September 2018 \u2013 now).<\/p>\n \u201cIt’s an open, (self-)educational project for exchanging and contextualising something whose nature we are unsure of: illegal cinema.\u201d (Jorge N\u00fa\u00f1ez, March 2011 \u2013 February 2012).<\/p>\n \u201cIt’s a framework or situation where we discuss the audiovisual, its forms, its texts; and the relationship between text and context, and how aesthetics becomes ethics and vice versa.\u201d (Cristian Villavicencio, March 2012 \u2013 June 2013).<\/p>\n \u201cIt’s a medium that allows a varied group of people to get together by the light of the projector to give the term itself a meaning. Cine_ilegal is always circumstantial.\u201d (Leire San Mart\u00edn, July 2013 \u2013 December 2014)<\/p>\n \u201cWe see Cine_ilegal sessions as a way of fostering another kind of production of knowledge and discourse among people who aren’t necessarily specialists.\u201d (Marion Cruza Le Bihan, February 2015 \u2013 September 2016).<\/p>\n \u201cCine_ilegal is not curated or programmed. The coordinator receives and accompanies the proposals towards each session, before and during its progression.\u201d Ainara Elgoibar, October 2016 \u2013 January 2018).<\/p>\n CALL FOR APPLICATIONS – COORDINATOR FOR ILLEGAL_CINEMA<\/b><\/p>\n Dates: between January 15 and February 15 2021. In January 2021, Bulegoa z\/b open our application process for the position of Illegal_Cinema coordinator. Programme coordination will begin in March 2021 and end in October 2022 to be handed over to a new applicant.<\/p>\n Tasks include accompanying the person proposing the film in conceiving and organising the session and the discussion following the screening. Each session is offered to the audience as a collective screening event. Illegal_Cinema focuses on the here and how of the screening, its artistic potential, and on how to build a shared experience with the audience.<\/p>\n This is our second open call for a coordinator for Illegal_Cinema. So far, each of the coordinators, who have all been artists, have contributed their particular style and manner of understanding film, illegality and collective experience through their own specific practice. The programme has been coordinated by Jorge N\u00fa\u00f1ez, Cristian Villavicencio, Leire San Mart\u00edn, Marion Cruza Le Bihan, Ainara Elgoibar and Pablo Marte, in chronological order.<\/p>\n Proposals will be selected by a jury comprised of Pablo Marte, who has coordinated our sessions from September 2018 to November 2020, and Irantzu Sanzo, artist and participant in Illegal_Cinema.<\/p>\n ABOUT ILLEGAL_CINEMA<\/b><\/p>\n Bulegoa z\/b has been hosting Illegal_Cinema since December 2010, soon after the opening of our space. 89 sessions have been held to date, and Bilbao is the only city where the programme continues to run. Illegal_Cinema was conceived in Belgrade in 2007 by Marta Popivoda, a member of TkH (Walking Theory) and has also been run at other venues in Zagreb, Istanbul, Paris and Berlin and other cities.<\/p>\n Illegal_Cinema works simply. Somebody proposes a screening at Bulegoa z\/b and commits to encouraging the discussion that will lead from the film with the programme coordinator.<\/p>\n Over the ten years of our existence, Illegal_Cinema has made its contribution to how we work here. But what is it? In the words of the coordinators of our sessions:<\/p>\n \u201cCine_Ilegal works simply. Someone proposes a film. This can be any kind of audiovisual document except for the person’s own work (\u2026). We get together. There’s a presentation and then we watch what they have proposed as we should. At the end of the screening, we have enthusiastic conversations about it.\u201d [Pablo Marte, Illegal_Cinema coordinator for Bulegoa z\/b, September 2018 \u2013 November 2020]\n \u201cAt Illegal_Cinema, we watch films and talk about them. (\u2026) Everyone is invited to take part and learn together.\u201d \u201cIllegal_Cinema is an open, (self-)educational project for exchanging and contextualising something undefined: illegal cinema.\u201d \u201cIllegal_Cinema is a framework\/situation where we talk about the audiovisual and its forms and texts. (\u2026) We are interested in the relationship between text and context, and how aesthetics becomes ethics.\u201d \u201cIllegal_Cinema is a way of thinking, of making mistakes and thinking again about what we consider to be illegal in the context of film. Illegal_Cinema is a medium which allows a varied group of people to come together under the light of the projector and give the term itself a meaning. Illegal_Cinema is always circumstantial.\u201d \u201cIllegal_Cinema is run in an office at street level in the Solokoetxe district in Bilbao. We understand the sessions (…) to be a way of furthering other kinds of production of knowledge and discourse between people who aren’t necessarily film specialists. (\u2026) Illegal_Cinema changes, grows and follows a different direction in each proposed session.\u201d CONDITIONS<\/b><\/p>\n 1. DESCRIPTION 2. DATES 3. APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS 4. JURY 5.
