Animated

18/06/2010 - 22/08/2010


As something new the Museum of Contemporary Art will present the graduation films from the Danish Film School's animation line 2010. The exhibition is developed and staged by students of Performance Design, curator group MUM, from Roskilde University and reflects the interdisciplinary collaboration between the University, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and The Danish Film School.


In the exhibition the movies will be experienced in unconventional settings challenging the usual red cinema seats. Five scenes, five stories and five very different processes are presented to the audience who is invited into a world of animation. The exhibition Animated is based on a series of very different films and shows how ideas come to life on the drawing board. The exhibition is exactly showing the audience how the film directors have given life and animated just their own perception of the adult world.


The films will comment in their own way current conditions and trends in contemporary society, as well as arising existential questions. The exhibition gives an insight into everything from bleak future scenarios to crisis in relationships, greed, eroticism and loneliness. The audience will be able to walk around among storyboards, wax figures and scenes from the films, which sensuously come alive through sound and light.

Films in the exhibition:
Rickard Stampe Söderström: Julegrisen (Christmas Piggy)
Søren Fruergaard: Klik i Familien (Clicked Up)
Tor Fruergaard: Venus
Helena Frank: Heavy Heads
Paw Charlie Ravn: To Venner (Two Friends)
