This event has ended.

Presenting videos made by American and European artists, this program relates to Samuel Beckett's last work, "Stirrings Still" at many levels: aesthetically, structurally, emotionally and metaphorically. The terms stirring and still, which generally refer to movement and stillness, are combined together, a characteristic inherent in all moving-image art works. Many of the selected videos center around structure and aesthetics, showing the interaction between moving and still elements, and exploring their reciprocal limits. Other works involve the repetitions and obsessive self-reflection present in Beckett's writing. While others deal with at some level the sentiment of 'the end', the passing of time and our fate of being alone with our own existence.
