The session is based on Anne Charlotte Robertson’s film work, unfiltered self-portraits documenting her daily life, marked by nervous breakdowns, psychotic outbreaks and bipolar disorder. In her hands, the Super8 camera became a tool for self-therapy: filming was her way of seeking mental balance. We will get to know some of his main influences (Carolee Schneemann) and we will see and comment on a representative fragment of his monumental Five Years Diary. The final part of the session will be devoted to other examples of the diary as self-therapy, not only in film (Su Friedrich) but also in art (Bobby Baker) and comics (Tara Booth).
GRAF is the platform that brings together the programme of contemporary art in Catalonia. The agenda that combines all agendas.
