Inter(World)View: Mutual Learning of Civilizations -- Seeking VKhUTEMAS & Eisenstein

The other was led by Fu Fan, Vice Dean of School of Film Art at CAA. Taking  "Eisenstein" to be the clue, the seeking for Sergei M. Eisenstein, the notable director, and his work Bronenosets Potemkin, which marked a significant advance in cinema and the further improvement of Montage, kicked off the seeking for "Soviet Montage Theory". Covering the State Central Film Museum and Russian State University of Cinema Tography n.a. S. Gerasimov(VGIK), the team visited 6 sites, met some experts and scholars. Through the seeking, the team gained an insight into how the concepts, technologies and techniques of cinema have imitated 20th century literature, painting, architecture and other art forms, and the worldview significance of cinema as a narrative medium or method.

After exploring the civilization, these 2 teams with other teams regrouped in Liangzhu, Hangzhou in east China's Zhejiang Province, launching the film actions via "Reports from the World" forum and the "Starplex" exhibition, sharing and exchanging what they have asked and thought around the world.

Inter(World)View (IWV) is a long-term project of CAA, through which the Academy tried to decode the history of civilization through art, understand art from the vantage point of civilization history, transcend existing notions of art history and professional perspectives, reopen the vistas of art and the concerns of the Academy.
