PARIS CALLIGRAMMES

The “Paris Calligrammes“ exhibit of filmmaker, photographer, and world collector Ulrike Ottinger runs until October 13th in the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin. It is a kind of workshop collage of Ottinger‘s 2019 film. In the film and the exhibit Ottinger connects historical archival material with her own work into a sociogram of her time as a painter in Paris, forming an image of the era of awakening and the cartography of a city and its utopias – from the Librairie Calligrammes, a meeting point of German intellectuals in exile, to Cinémathèque française, which sparked Ottinger‘s love for cinema. The HKW is showing an accompanying film series curated by the artist herself. In September they will screen Godard‘s LA CHINOISE (1967), Jacques Panijel‘s OCTOBRE Á PARIS (1961) and a double feature with LA BLESSURE, LA TRAGÉDIE DES HARKIS (2009) by Daniel Costello and Isabelle Clarke where parts of PARISIAN JOURNAL (1962) by Georg Stefan Troller can be seen
