Suburban Gothic (2014) was directed by American Richard Bates Jr. The film was the winner of the Hollywood Screamfest in 2014, after which Richard Bates Jr. went on to realize his third feature-length project Trash Fire (2016).
Inhabit at Beto Kino – 19:00: The environment, economics, and social values are the critical issues we face today and topics that deserve all of our attention. On the other hand, permaculture offers a new perspective and development opportunities for the world around us. The documentary film “Inhabit” will bring you rational, ecological and practical solutions that we can all be a part of. After the screening, director Cōsto Boutsikaris will discuss the film.
If you’re looking for art:
“Boundary” Exhibition at Gallery of Fine Arts: Boundary is the video of Carlos Aires (Spain), Paola Canevari (Italy), and Aurore Reinhard (Finland) which links the appropriation and reinterpretation of historically recognizable cultural patterns taken from either high or popular art. These are templates that aestheticize the strength and importance of sex and sexuality, which at some historical point in time represented the provocation to eventually become the classics of their period or mainstream entertainment. By their reinterpretation, contemporary artists return the subversive charge and explore the penitential status and the relationship between sexuality and power, ideology, and sensuality.
Carlos Aires (Spain), Paola Canevari (Italy), and Aurore Reinhard (Finland)
Afrika Goran Jović at Ethnographic Museum: Jović photographs dominate the permeation of darkness and gaze. As a photographer, his pictures of male, female and children’s portraits are masterpieces in black or white.
