ciclo de cine Víctor Erice y Claire Denis
Retrospectiva Víctor Erice
Con una obra muy personal, la producción de Víctor Erice es escasa pero muy apreciada por los cinéfilos, que la consideran una de las más bellas del cine mundial.
Con solo tres largometrajes Erice continúa siendo parte del cine de autor más destacado participando en proyectos junto aJim Jarmusch, Aki Kaurismaki, Jean-Luc Godard, Bernardo Bertolucci, Wim Wenders, Jia Zhangke, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Pedro Costa, Manoel de Oliveira, Abbas Kiarostami, Naomi Kawase, entre otros.
Claire Denis
Tras graduarse deI IDHEC, la Escuela de Cine Francesa, trabajó como asistente de Jacques Rivette, Costa-Gavras, Jim Jarmusch y Wim Wenders. Con películas tales como US Go Home (1994),Beau travail (1999), y Vendredi soir (2002), estableció una reputación como realizadora, que «ha podido reconciliar la lírica del cine francés con el impulso por capturar la, a menudo, dura cara de la Francia contemporánea».
Todos los sábados a las 7:00 p.m. en el patio de lugar a dudas.

encuentros con la no-ficción: ciclo de cine de Artavazd Peleshyan y Sergei Dvorstevoy
Artavazd Peleshyan
Creador del “montaje a distancia” que combina la percepción de profundidad con sujetos que se aproximan. Artavazd Peleshyan, es uno de los documentalistas y teóricos soviéticos más importantes, quien por encontrarse en un país poco relevante para los circuitos internacionales de cine, no tuvo mayor reconocimento hasta hace relativamente poco tiempo.
Su trabajo busca difuminar los límites entre ficción y no ficción, trabajando en la edición de dos secuencias como una unidad poética real.
Sergei Dvorstevoy
Íntimo y elegante, los documentales de Dvortsevoy están vinculados al cine de observación. Sus temas recurrentes tienen que ver personas que tratan de dar un sentido a su existencia en medio de una Rusia en transición. Con un afilado ojo para la poesía y el misterio en la vida cotidiana, y sin narración u otras formas de exposición externa, Dvorstevoy propone: “observa junto a mi silenciosamente y todo ocurrirá”.
Todos los martes a las 7:00 p.m. en el patio de lugar a dudas.

More FIX on the NET @ FIX University Cultural Campus
Welcome to Spring Semester 2013
The Master of Fine Arts in Visual Arts
Master of Fine Arts in visual arts at FIX University is the terminal degree within the studio art discipline. Our program offers concentrations in the studio areas of drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics, photography and sculpture. The primary goal of the program is to provide students with opportunities to develop a high degree of professional competence in their chosen area of concentration. Interdisciplinary and collaborative projects are encouraged within the department. The relatively small size of the program encourages students to explore studio areas that will enhance their major area of concentration. In addition, it creates a highly individualized method of instruction. Our students may also take advantage of the opportunity to spend a semesters of study on The FIX University Cultural Campus in Cali, Columbia.
Having the department of art housed on Independent Learning presents opportunities to interact with various other college disciplines. The M.F.A. curriculum is composed of the following art history and art seminar an in studio thesis. The thesis is primarily art studio in preparation for a final exhibition with published documentation. Residencies are available based upon artist performance and international funding.

Studio & Thesis
DPA 860: Digital Production Studio
The digital production studio provides the student with the opportunity to develop as accomplished visual problem solvers in a team setting. As part of the studio experience, students will complete 12 credits working on a team-oriented production project, in which they will take a project from concept through a finished piece. This will give them the experience of working on a goal-oriented artistic team. Students begin their studio sequence taking the studio course for only one credit each semester of their first year. This provides new students with a familiarization to the team process workflow, while still allowing them to concentrate on coursework to develop core skills and knowledge. After the end of their first two semesters, they work on a team project, for two consecutive terms, either summer-fall or fall-spring. The digital production studio will include regular class meetings, under faculty supervision, providing the vehicle for planning, critique, and presentation of ongoing project work. Although a large majority of a student’s studio work will be undertaken outside of class, active participation in class is crucial to a successful studio experience, and is required.
DPA 880: Graduate Research Studio
The graduate research studio provides the student with the opportunity to complete a major project or projects, under the guidance of a faculty advisor, in a direction supporting their personal goals and aspirations. All students will complete 6 credits of research studio. Such work may be team oriented or individually oriented, and may be of a technical or of an artistic nature.
DPA 891: M.F.A. Thesis
The M.F.A. thesis course consists of a studio project, undertaken with the guidance of the student’s advisor and thesis committee. The thesis project is developed to a refined degree, articulated in the form of a written document, and presented orally in a thesis defense. The project is intended to elaborate and refine a theme that the student has begun to explore in the elective coursework and the production and research studio.
