CINÉMATHÈQUE TEMPORAIRE DU CJC ✹ #19

Collectif Jeune Cinéma

Revisions by Chris Oakley will be screening in Program #19 of the CJC’s Cinémathèque Temporaire. In 2021, the Collectif Jeune Cinéma celebrates its half-century of existence. To celebrate it, we invited ourselves in residence at Mains d’Oeuvres (Saint-Ouen) in order to set up the Collectif Jeune Cinéma’s Temporary Cinémathèque. More than a third of our catalog will be screened there, at the rate of one screening per week every Friday, and one full Saturday per month. There will be almost 80 screenings in all, with films from 2020 to 1943. Films will be shown in reverse chronological order, according to their production date. Members of the CJC, all filmmakers, will welcome you in this space that we hope will be open to all : that’s why the entrance fee is pay-what-you-want. At the end of each screening, there will be a discussion in the cinema or at the bar of Mains d’Oeuvres. Program #19 (73′) Infos: Mains d’Œuvres, 1 Rue Charles Garnier, 93400 Saint-Ouen (métro 4, 13, 14, bus 85) Salle Star Trek (2nd floor) Pay-what-you-want Doors open at 18h30 / screening at 19

Microscopy of the Union Flag opens at Old Fire Station, Oxford

Exhibition at Old Fire Station, Oxford, 17 January – 14 March 2020

Opening: Thursday 16 January, 6-8pm

Microscopy of the Union Flag is a forensic visual examination of the Union Jack. Utilising progressively greater magnification, the exhibition is a photographic exploration of the physical aspects of the national flag intended as a reflection on the crisis of national identity in which Britain currently finds itself.

Utilising extreme macrophotographic and microphotographic techniques, the work offers a literal parallel to the frantic introspection of a country seeking a definition of itself. The national collective self seems characterised by its rifts as much as common values; rifts between the constituent nations of the Union, as well as the potentially deeper rifts between those of diverging views about the nation’s place in the world at large. The work is a reflection on nationalism and patriotism and is in a literal sense a search for meaning within these concepts; patriotism has vastly different meanings and emotional weight between individuals.
