Critical Encounter <\/strong> <\/strong>(2010)<\/em><\/p>\n HD video (3min. 45 sec.)\u00a0 + rotating sculpture (dm = 1 m, height = 1,2 m). Actors: <\/em>DanDara ViTaL & Kristofer Paetau. Camera: Robert Estermann & Rubens Pileggi S\u00a1.<\/em><\/p>\n A seductive curator visits the artist’s studio but incompatibility of artistic vision turns the visit into a traumatic experience…<\/strong><\/p>\n The film was shot in a cheap hotel in Rio de Janeiro where transvestite prostitutes go with their clients. The two improvising actors are DanDara ViTaL and myself. DanDara is supposedly a Brazilian curator making a studio visit to a foreign „gringo“ artist who has made an artistic research in Rio de Janeiro. But things start going wrong from the beginning: the curator finds the studio strange and does not have much empathy for the research that I am trying to speak about. Soon a clash of artistic visions and values seems inevitable\u00a6<\/p>\n DanDara is a brazilian actress and a transvestite who does not speak nor understand English. In this film she is repeating phonetically the words that I told her on the spot. This not only gives her performance an absurd quality but also suggests the difficulty in art to find a common language – whereas I speak an average non-native English but find myself incapable of explaining my art in a convincing manner.<\/p>\n Kristofer Paetau<\/p>\n [pro-player width=’800′ height=’452′ type=’video‘ image=’http:\/\/old.brodypaetau.com\/downloads\/\/2010\/09\/CriticalEncounterPreviewPic.jpg‘]http:\/\/old.brodypaetau.com\/downloads\/videos\/CriticalEncounterWEB.flv [\/pro-player]<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CLICK HERE TO VIEW QUICKTIME MOVIE \/\u00a0 CLICK HERE TO VIEW WINDOWS MEDIA MOVIE Critical Encounter (2010) HD video (3min. 45 sec.)\u00a0 + rotating sculpture (dm = 1 m, height = 1,2 m).
