AVANT 2018 – Doing Haut and Pope
AVANT 2018: 28–29th September
Doing Haut and Pope: Loophole Cinema and More
(english)
The 15thedition of AVANT: Doing Haut and Pope. Loophole Cinema and More is a revisit to the British collective Loophole Cinema and their film actions from the 90s. In addition, three separate film programs by Karel Doing, Bea Haut and Greg Pope are being shown including some other films by former members of Loophole Cinema.
Loophole Cinema
Loophole Cinema worked with site-specific live actions where the audience and the site constituted a part of the film event. Greg Pope has continued to work in the same tradition and Bea Haut is well-known for her intense performative short films that explore the filmic space as place and time event. Karel Doing worked loosely with Loophole Cinema on the International Symposium of Shadows in 1996 and his work ranges from abstract aesthetics to poetic documentaries.

Årets AVANT: Doing Haut and Pope. Loophole Cinema and More är ett återbesök till det brittiska kollektivet Loophole Cinema och deras filmaktioner från 90-talet. Därutöver visas tre separata filmprogram av Karel Doing, Bea Haut och Greg Pope inklusive enskilda filmer av andra Loophole Cinema medlemmar.
Loophole Cinema
Loophole Cinema arbetade med platsspecifika live-aktioner där publiken och platsen blir en del av filmhändelsen. Greg Pope har fortsatt i samma tradition. Bea Haut är känd för sina intensiva performativa kortfilmer som utforskar det filmiska rummet som plats och tidshändelse, medan Karel Doing arbetar över ett brett register från abstrakt film till poetiska dokumentärer.
