AMATEUR FILM FACTORY by MICHEL GONDRY @ IFFR 2012

I'M HAPPY TO BE INVOLVED IN THE REALISATION OF THE AMATEUR FILM FACTORY, A PROJECT BY FILMMAKER MICHEL GONDRY THAT LETS US ALL BE FILMMAKERS. IT WILL FEATURE IN THE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL ROTTERDAM 2012. MORE LATER, FOR NOW, GO FOR MORE INFO ON THE PROJECT TO THIS LINK OR FACEBOOK.

RENÉ DANIËLS SURVEY EXHIBITION + NEW PUBLICATION

I HAVE JUST FINISHED PROOFREADING THE BOOK 'RENÉ DANIÉLS. THE WORDS ARE NOT IN THEIR PROPER PLACE' THAT I EDITED FOR NAI PUBLISHERS. IT ACCOMPANIES THE EXHIBITION 'RENÉ DANIËLS. AN EXHIBITION IS ALWAYS PART OF A GREATER WHOLE' THAT I'M CURATING FOR MNCARS MADRID AND THE VAN ABBEMUSEUM EINDHOVEN. THE MADRID SHOW OPENS ON 20 OCTOBER 2011 AND RUNS THROUGH 26 MARCH 2012. THEN IT OPENS IN EINDHOVEN OM 12 MAY.

FOR THE EINDHOVEN VERSION OF THE EXHIBITION I'M PUTTING TOGETHER A SIDE-SHOW ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE ART AND THE MUSIC SCENE IN THIS CITY IN THE 1970s AND 1980s.
