starting 6 pm, Meinblau, Pfefferberg, Schönhauser Allee 176, 10119 Berlin Mitte
THE 7TH BERLIN INTERNATIONAL DIRECTORS LOUNGE
This year's 7th Berlin International Directors Lounge has attracted an
outstanding number of international artists and filmmakers to come to
Berlin, to be personally present and to introduce their programme or
show their art. The media art festival, organized by Berlin artists,
will again present not just a selection of this year's best submissions,
but exhibit a large number of curated programmes on specific topics
selected by German and international guest curators. Directors Lounge
features three main programmes every day, together with live music
events, DJ's and a loop programme at the lounge bar. The lounge invites
for meetings and discussions, or just a cool chill-out. º*¨¨*º Directors
Lounge as an initiative of artists encompasses monthly screenings,
exhibitions and art events for several years now. And, the festival in
February that features a wide and international spectrum of experimental
works, documentary films and art works, mostly focussing on the short
form. This all happens in a relaxed ambience, in the mode of an open
house, a meeting-point during Berlinale and the idea of a lounge that
has become much more than an insider's tip in the Berlin art scene.
º*¨¨*º Beginning with Febr. 10th over the period of ten days, and
starting at 6 pm, Directors Lounge features a daily programme of
specials at Meinblau on Pfefferberg in Berlin-Mitte, the heart of
Berlin. Highlights include composer Michael Nyman, who will personally
present his film work; Jean-Gabriel Périot, one of the most important
exponents of French experimental film; the Collectif Jeune Cinéma;
Alexei Dmitriev (St. Petersburg), shooting star of the international
curator scene; Berlin gallerist Fridey Mickel; Kika Nicolela (Brazil);
Klaus W. Eisenlohrs "Urban Research"; the Zebra Poetry Film Festival and
films by artists of the Myriam Blundell Project (London), to name only a
few. Following a good old tradition of Directors Lounge's curators, the

FORMS/FORCES: AN EVENING WITH FILM ARTIST ROSALIND SCHNEIDER
Rosalind Schneider has been in the vanguard of Art of the Moving Image
since the early 1970′s. Throughout her career, Schneider's
abstract studies have pushed the boundaries of visual language, from
painting to sculpture to film, video and digital media. Within the last
decade, Schneider's work was archived in the Museum of Modern Art's
permanent film collection, and included in 'The Color of Ritual, the
Color of Thought: Women Avant-Garde Filmmakers in America, 1930-2000,' a
series at the Whitney Museum of American Art curated by Chrissie Iles.
Schneider's unique visual language incorporates anamorphic mirrors,
shadows, and multiple screens to dramatize the forces of nature and the
human body in motion. This program features a screening and discussion
with Schneider of her early films, Abstraction (1971) and the
triple-projected Parallax (1973), both recently restored by NYWIFT's
Women's Film Preservation Fund, and her stunning Earth Saga (1980).
Co-sponsored by the Film Studies Center Graduate Student Curatorial
Program, and the Center for Gender Studies. Free and open to the public.
Reservations may be made at the Film Studies Center website.

ENIAIOS: CYCLE FIVE
Saturday, February 19, 3:00 p.m. ENIAIOS: CYCLE FIVE By Gregory
Markopoulos 263 mins. (4 hours, 23 mins.) Visionary filmmaker and
American expatriate Gregory Markopoulos (1928-1992) devoted his last
twenty years to Eniaios, an eighty-hour meditation on the essence of
cinema, embodied in an intricate fusion of Greek myth, portraiture, and
landscape. The film was designed to be shown only in its entirety during
special screenings of its twenty-two cycles, or "orders," in a carefully
chosen site outside the Peloponnesian village of Lyssaria. At the
current pace of restoration and preservation, with successive screenings
of individual cycles every few years, the entire film will not be seen
until 2028. Museum of the Moving Image will screen Eniaios: Cycle 5 on
Saturday, February 19, 2011, at 3:00 p.m. Prior to the screening will be
an hour-long panel discussion, at 1:00 p.m., with Robert Beavers, who
was Gregory Markopoulos's companion for nearly thirty years and who
directs the Temenos Association, devoted to the preservation and
presentation of Markopoulos's work. A panel of noted scholars, including
Rebekah Rutkoff, Dr. Jeffrey Stout, and Richard Suchenski, will discuss
Markopoulos's work. This 16mm projection copy of Eniaios: Cycle 5 was
made possible by a grant from the National Film Preservation Foundation,
with funding from The Film Foundation. The event is free with museum
admission. For your reference, an essay by P. Adams Sitney on
Markopoulos's Eniaios project can be found: here

STEPHANIE GRAY: SIG(H)NS - SUPER 8 FILMS
Bikes. Buildings. Poetry. Metallica... This is what the world is made
of, as it appears in this selection of short super8 films by Stephanie
Gray, an out-and-out modern bike heroine riding among urban decadence
and sighing, lamenting for the disappearance of brick-built pieces of
reality. Although poetry and metal music can partly relieve her, Poe's
cravens seem to keep storming over the city pronouncing their nevermore
at the funerals of empty buildings, houses, stores. Gray is able to zoom
in and rediscover the beauty of what is simple, the poetry inherent in
little things, and even a single bike ride to work can find its way to
happiness. Seeing through her eyes gives us the chance to practice this
very special, fertile, right - if ever rightness existed - perspective
on the world. -- andrea monti... "...we just never get used to it, the
higher and higher we fly and the easier it is to say, "TAKE THIS JOB AND
SHOVE IT", and soon we burst and it is very very lite, and we just get
used to the dark, but the reds, and the smokes and the steel and the
cries of "justice", of "fairness", of "it's the principle of the thing,
bud", it's like strangers, it's like fire." ... (from "School of Work",
by Stephanie Gray, published in "Heart Stoner Bingo", 2007)... ...The
program features 11 super 8 short films by Gray, all projected on film,
including the premiere of her fresh-from-print "Satanic Bible on
Interlibrary Loan". A few of them will be projected with live narration
by the artist. The evening includes works from 1999-2011 including
2010's "You know they want to disappear Hell's Kitchen as Clinton" as
well as display of a selection of film still prints.

ROSE LOWDER PROGRAM
FILMMAKER IN PERSON! NYC PREMIERE OF NEW WORK! Anthology is delighted to
present a program of films by French experimental filmmaker Rose Lowder,
featuring several brand-new works which will be enjoying their NYC
premiere! Lowder has been a prolific practitioner of perceptual
experiments with 16mm film since the 1970s. She has composed more than
50 films, mostly in and around her home in the beautiful Avignon region
of France. Lowder's breathtaking and carefully composed films explore
landscape and cityscape using a unique single-frame structure. After
training as a painter and sculptor in artist studios and art schools in
Lima, Lowder worked in London as an artist while earning a living as a
film editor. Since 1977 she has been active as a film curator, as well
as a filmmaker. In order to make her body of work available to a wider
public, she compiled a collection of films and paper documents, The
Experimental Film Archive of Avignon (1981). In 1982, she co-founded the
experimental film distribution organization, Lightcone, which currently
circulates more than 3,500 films throughout Europe and the U.S. Lowder
is still active with Lightcone and regularly tours France and Europe as
a film curator. Lowder has not visited the U.S. since the late-80s, and
so we are overjoyed to welcome her back for this evening's program. "I
have shot many reels of film, and I build on my past experience, but
each reel covers new ground. To me, a project isn't interesting if I
know exactly what's going to happen. I could film a flowerpot, but that
would be cinematographically totally boring. I want the subject that I'm
filming to be living its own life." –Rose Lowder LES TOURNESOLS COLORÉS
/ COLORED SUNFLOWERS (1983, 3 minutes, 16mm, silent) QUIPROQUO (1992, 13
minutes, 16mm. Music by Katie O'Looney.) BOUQUETS 1-10 (1994-95, 11.5

LONG LIVE OUR LOVE
Recent works by Michael Robinson, Ben Russell and Laida Lertxundi -
Director Laida Lextundi in attendance! A desert wind is blowing, a
bright light flickering out from far beyond that half-blue horizon. This
landscape is a skyscape, it is a rotating mirror, it is a stuttering
television image. You and I are there as well - we are jungled and we
are masked, we are lost but we are holding hands. We have song and bell
and bird for guides, and with you and you standing next to me, this is
certainly all we need: Long Live Our Love!
