New Festival in Copenhagen Investigates Architectural and Cinematic Spaces
Copenhagen Architecture Festival x FILM has released the complete program for the festival, which will take place for the first time from the 27th to the 30th of March 2014. The festival team has been working hard to put together a program that combines the best of architecture and film. The program features more than eighty events including films, debates, city walks and special events.
Josephine Michau, executive director of Copenhagen Architecture Festival x FILM, said:
“I am very proud to present the first program ever of our festival, and I am looking forward to welcome all of our audiences, both Danish and international. Architecture is indeed a broad field. Therefore we have designed a program that takes our audience by the hand with a kind of thematic guide which can help opening up new aspects of the architectural and cinematic fields which people would otherwise not know about. This year, we are focusing on six particular themes: Architectural Processes, Architecture and Ritual, Filmic Space and Architectural Space, Landscape and Film, Modernism and Personal Spaces.”
One of the main ambitions for the 2014 debut festival is to put a special focus on the intersection between architecture and film. Program director, Peter Møller Rasmussen, said:
“The program reflects our ambition to combine film and architecture, not only through the selection of films, but also with the many highly-qualified speakers that will frame the screenings with interesting debates and talks.”
Among others, the audience can look forward to the Nordic premiere of Cathedrals of Culture - Wim Wenders’ 3D project consisting of 6 parts, which just had its world premiere at the Berlinale 2014. Copenhagen Arhcitecture Festival x FILM is also proud to present a world premiere of the art film director Heinz Emigholz' trilogy Decampment of Modernism, with the director himself introducing his oeuvre.
