Jump (Hysterique Bourreé), Director Charles Atlas in collaboration with Philippe Découflé, 1984, France, 14 min. 43 sec
Parade, Director Shahryar Nashat, 2014, Germany, 38 min
Stop Motion features two films by artist filmmakers that capture dance on screen in unique interactions with the camera. Jump is a wildly stylized collaboration between filmmaker Charles Atlas and French choreographer Philippe Découflé. Parade by artist Shahryar Nashat is a cinematic adaptation of a choreographic work by Biennial 2016 artist Adam Linder, which reinterprets a 1917 ballet by Jean Cocteau and captures the dancers’ performances in intimate detail.
Another Version of Events is the official Liverpool Biennial 2016 film programme. A selection of films influenced by genres including sci-fi, mockumentary, pseudo-documentary, mockbuster and ethnofiction is being screened every week throughout the Biennial.
