Cinematography

"Art" - A different kind of Art film. One that takes the liberty to amplify and invent freely along the basis of reality. A film that speaks for the artist.

Director

A film about multi-media artist Kjartan Slettemark’s Nixon Visions, the collective title of his famous pictorial version of president Nixon, made 1971-74. It has its beginning in, among other things, Slettemark’s slogan ‘Opposition Must Pay Off’. The new, coffee-loving Nixon is marketed in a satirical balancing act between humor and seriousness. Slettemark’s advertising campaign is ‘a study of Nixon’s mental health’ in which ‘the face is the mirror of the soul’. (Filmform)

Director

Experimental film by Hans Esselius.

Director

A poetic study of thirst. Stylized images of flowing water and the face of a young woman flowing past as in a metaphysical dream. The magic and clarity of water makes it a classic topic in free film, used by many film-makers in different ways. Esselius again manages to imbue this theme with energy and vitality. (Filmform)
