Brief description
In Egypt, in the aftermath of the revolution, the political event with its visual documentation gets lost in the midst of an overwhelming archive. Evidentiary by default, 'protester made in the moment’ video testimonies, that were once produced out of a political urgency, have now become historical. In the attempt to capture and better understand these moments, I search the footage for blurs, cut-outs, fragments that seem unrepresentative enough or useless to the event at the time of the making. What did we learn from the political event? What was performed and captured? How was it turned into a spectacle? How do we speak the law? In the second section I will read and share images from a collective research on the theatricality of law. I would like to think with you of examples of other participatory works where the outcome (evidence) shapes new trajectories for storytelling, where the line between fiction and fact is blurred and the role of the filmmaker is not clear. |

Brief description
(in Polish) Zachodnie społeczności muzułmańskie utożsamiane w szerokim dyskursie publicznym z zagrożeniem dla wartości europejskich są integralną częścią społeczeństw. Mimo że marginalne grupy rzeczywiście prezentują postawy dowodzące niezintegrowania ze społeczeństwami przyjmującymi, to większość wtapia się w te społeczeństwa. Osiąga status klasy średniej a czasem nawet trafia do grona tzw. elit społecznych. Pośród muzułmanów znajdujemy intelektualistów, artystów, poetów, pisarzy, muzyków, filmowców czy architektów. Ich prace stanowią ubogacenie sztuki i kultury Zachodu, wpisując się jednocześnie w nową, hybrydową kulturę światową, a cechą szczególną tej twórczości jest odzwierciedlanie w niej złożonej tożsamości zachodnich muzułmanów. Celem zajęć jest zapoznanie uczestników z najważniejszymi twórcami pochodzącymi ze świata islamu żyjącymi na Zachodzie oraz ich dziełami. Dla osiągnięcia tego celu konieczne będzie poznanie podstawowych teorii kulturoznawstwa oraz dyskursu postkolonialnego. |
