ANGER AND BEYOND
SCREENING
Argos was founded in 1989 for the purpose of stimulating and promoting audiovisual art; at present it is the country’s main source of reference for this type of artistic practice. Today Argos has a collection of nearly 5,000 works.
Kenneth Anger is a filmmaker who summarizes the classical formats of art and cinema. He creates a very diverse and idiosyncratic oeuvre. He also used the full potential of the medium to emancipate, to shock and to imagine what can not be shown in a different way.
The Argos proposed program is an anthology of works from the collection where artists attempt to take a similar position. The selected works show - in different ways - the artists' fascination with the occult, the physical, the surreal and erotic. Furthermore, these videos have a critical attitude: criticism, not only towards certain social issues, but also criticism facing the still untapped potential of film and video in our media culture.
