On the UNESCO World Day of AV Heritage, October 27, the SCCA, Center for Contemporary Arts – Ljubljana traditionally prepares a screening at the Slovenian Cinematheque. This year, it has joined forces with the Autumn Film School to extend an invitation to Light Cone. For this occasion, we have put together two programs of 16 mm and 35 mm experimental films made over a span of almost a hundred years, between 1927 and 2016. The first program "Paris, Capital of the 20th Century?" looks around the intellectual and artistic capital of the time, while the second program, entitled "Object Relations", flirts with psychoanalysis and shows the metaphorical power of objects on the screen. The curator, Mariya Nikiforova, will be present to introduce both programs.
On Friday, October 27 at 5.30 pm, she will also deliver a presentation on the hybridization of photochemical and digital practices in contemporary experimental film, based on her experience as coordinator of the Atelier 105 residency program.

Beyond its appealing veneer, Paris has always been a site of great intellectual and artistic tensions. It has also historically been a place of political refuge, attracting many foreign thinkers and artists. Thus, the melting-pot city has been traversed by such a quantity of gazes and ideas that every corner seems to be charged with historic or symbolic significance. Presented here is just a modest promenade around 20th-century Paris and the artistic passions that have animated it.

Antonin Artaud has said, “If the cinema is not made to interpret dreams or what pertains to the realm of dreams in conscious life, it does not exist.” The link between cinema and psychoanalysis, and the metaphoric power of objects on the screen, accentuated by the close-up, have been explored and theorized throughout film history. Inspired by this idea, this program invents a psychic trajectory from object to object, metaphor to metaphor, through a chain of connections that activate powerful symbols (fire, water, house, or milk), perhaps, all the way to the revelation of a taboo.
