Screening of "Fast Trip, Long Drop", a film by Gregg Bordowitz
Samedi 14 juin à 13h :
Projection du film de Gregg Bordowitz, «Fast Trip, Long Drop» dans le cadre de l’exposition “Like an Attali Report, but different”. Une proposition de Cosmin Costinas, le commissaire de l’exposition.
“Fast Trip, Long Drop” (1994) est un film central dans le travail de Gregg Bordowitz, dont la portée s’étend au-delà du mouvement activiste AIDS, en proposant une réflexion sur les stratégies de lutte, d’inidualisation et de formation d’une communauté qui ont marqué l’histoire (occidentale) de ces dernières décennies.
La construction du film alterne moments de sincérité, d’ironie et de solidarité, de questionnement de la position et des responsabilités du narrateur, et présente aussi bien des scènes de manifestation ACT UP que des artistes tels qu’Andrea Fraser et Yvonne Rainer, proches de Bordowitz.

Saturday, June 14 at 1pm:
Screening of the film “Fast Trip, Long Drop” (1994) by Gregg Bordowitz with an introduction by the artist.
(on the other days, the film will be shown in the space of Kadist Art Foundation at 2pm, 4pm and 6pm.)
Gregg Bordowitz’s “Fast Trip, Long Drop” is a seminal work whose scope extends beyond the AIDS activist movement, being a reflection on the strategies of struggle, of standing out and of community forming that have marked the (Western) history of the last decades. The video is masterfully constructed, alternating moments of sincerity, of questioning the position and responsibilities of the confessing subject, of irony and of solidarity, featuring moments from ACT UP demonstration as well as artists like Andrea Fraser and Yvonne Rainer, with whom Bordowitz has been closely involved.
This program will take place at the cinema Ciné 13,
located in the vicinity of Kadist Art Foundation.
