Iberia Center for Contemporary Art proudly announces the first exhibition of the year 2009, “What has been happening here?” —— the Inaugural Exhibition of Chinese Independent Film Archive (CIFA). The whole event attempts to give a panorama report on the development of Chinese independent film over the past ten years in three parts: film sreenings, a document exhibition and panel discussions. In film screenings, about 80 films from home and abroad will be shown including features, documentaries and experimental films. Six thematic sections are programmed in the screening.
During the exhibition, Live Concerts featuring Japanese musician Otomo Yoshihide and his friends, and documentary screenings will be included as special events of this exhibition.
The film exhibition “What has been happening here?”, jointly curated by Zhang Yaxuan the director of CIFA, Zuo Jing the art director of Iberia Center for Contemporary Art, and Dong Bingfeng the executive editor-in-chief of Art and Investment & Contemporary Art and Investment Magazines, will open on 29th March and run through three weeks. It attempts to allow more people from outside the field know what has been happening here in the past ten years, and help us to think, understand and live in the complex Chinese reality of our time.
