F.I.F.E. 2006

Over a hundred films of art, covering, practically, all the geographical areas of the planet were projected in the Festival’s cadre of the Experimental Film organized by the Florean Museum.The manager and the initiate of the project, the plastic artist Mircea Bochis realized with this edition an event which is very rarely even in the international field and in the cultural field, too, as it is the romanian one, more sensitive to the traditonal values and expressions.The marathon projection which lasted over ten hours brought in the first plan two components which define in the fundamental way the nature and the language of the experimental film: primarily, the reflexive action, namely, the turning of the language towards itself, the instrumentation of the image as a goal and not as a mean, and secondly, the ethic vocation and the moral engagement, the reinforcement of the existence and the penalization of the history.

But, either it’s about the pure image, abstracted, the absolute narcissism of the language, or it’s about the regress of the humanity till the limit of wilderness, there are situated events like the beheading of the hostages from Irak, the stabbing of the enemies from Afghanistan, the executions through shooting in the nape from China etc. etc., events which become in a way quasi-fictional shows spied by the risk of loosing their real substance and also spied by the risk of the dispossession of the dramatic nature, the films presented keep to the end their artistic status.The films rebuild the world taking over its messages, define in another way the human being revealing his grandeur or discovering his stock of wild actions, debate upon the status of the image, of the language, of the technology etc., in the same time with the recuperation of the metaphysical tyre of the existence and with the discussion of our symbolical horizon. And the fact that, for a night, the laboratory of this new searching and artistic communication formula moved from all over the world at the Theatre from Baia Mare and represents a fundamental thing: it doesn’t exist limits of reception and of undestanding of the artistic languages, it only exists mental laziness, opacity and incapacity to create truth events.And these variants can also be found at Paris and at Baia Mare. But, the town Baia Mare proved this time that it can be even for a night a cultural centre of far-reaching.
