Our CREATORS from the Merz Akademie invite you to the lecture “Film as Space – Inside and outside. Body and world. Yesterday, today, tomorrow.” (German/English) on Tuesday, December 17, 2024, 18:15 CET. This is the inaugural lecture by Maria Mohr, who has been Professor of Film and Video at the Merz Akademie since 2023. Maria Mohr studied architecture and experimental media design. Her documentary films are research, journeys and reconstructions of biographies of people for whom this world, as it appears to be, is not enough.
The lecture will take place in the auditorium of the Merz Akademie (Teckstr. 58, 70190 Stuttgart) as part of the lecture series “Realism: The Great Promise of Cinema” (curated by Maria Mohr together with Peter Ott) in the winter semester 2024/25 – in cooperation with the Stuttgarter Filmwinter. Further lectures in the series will follow on January 7, 2025 (“Portraits in Film” (German/English) by Katharina Pethke) and on January 14, 2025 (“On Parrots.” (German/English) by Gernot Wieland). Filmmakers who are characterized by particularly innovative concepts of realism were invited to the lecture series to present their work.
