1. International Art Action Istanbul 2009 is presenting more than 100 artworks, performances and art video at three locations in Istanbul. The festival is organized and curated by Sevgi and Evrensel Urum and will take place from 26th september to 5th october 2009.
Curator Sevgi Urum has chosen LOST CITY for screening at Istanbul Photography Center at 5th, 6th and 10th october 2009. LOST CITY is the 4th PHILOSOPHICAL CARTOON, a collection of films translating general approaches to human condition - usually part of philosophical disciplines - into video film. The 4th PHILOSOPHICAL CARTOON is about how our perception system influences perception of our environment.
PHILOSOPHICAL CARTOONS are part of the Contemperary Video Art Collection of the DIAF. The DIAF (Deutsches Institut fuer Animationsfilm) is dedicated to preserve GDR animation film heritage and started a contemporary art video collection last year.
