    NOSTALGIA CUBANA - PROJECTION

    Ernesto Oroza will pre­sent two films rarely seen in France, around the cult figure of cuban film-maker Waldo Fernandez, aka « Marakka », whose prac­tice is based on piracy and the appro­pri­a­tion of images. Since 1983, Waldo Fernandez “Marakka” has been assem­bling an archive of Cuban audio­vi­sual memory. The col­lec­tion–which func­tions com­mer­cially under the “Marakka 2000” brand–relies and exploits a loop­hole cre­ated by cur­rent Cuba-U.S. diplo­matic rela­tions, and is sus­tained by a pre­cise and astute under­standing of cur­rent pro­ce­dures regarding the pro­tec­tion of copy­right in the U.S.

    Nostalgia cubana, by Waldo Fernandez (Marakka) (1986, dura­tion: 55’33’’) is com­posed of sequences of land­scapes taken from sev­eral cuban films. This film is often used as a decor or "ambiance" in many Cuban restau­rants and bars in Miami.

    Marakka 2012, by Magdiel Aspillaga & Ernesto Oroza (2012, dura­tion: 34’49’’, lan­guage: Spanish with English sub­ti­tles) explores the work of the film­maker, « a mon­u­ment to piracy ».

    Before the screening, Nicolas Maigret & Maria Roszkowska will pre­sent The Pirate Book, a com­pi­la­tion of sto­ries about sharing, dis­tributing and expe­ri­encing cul­tural con­tents out­side the bound­aries of local economies, pol­i­tics, or laws.

    Thursday November 17 to Saturday November 19 from 2 p.m to 7 p.m

    In the Pernod Ricard Studio at Villa Vassilieff

    OPEN STUDIO with Ernesto Oroza

    Let’s start, here. Guy Bonsiepe book (spanish edition) and pirated version produced in Havana. Two books 2016. Courtesy Ernesto Oroza and Villa Vassilieff.

    Cuban artist, designer and writer Ernesto Oroza opens the door of his studio to share the out­come of his research and the works pro­duced during his res­i­dency in Paris with the Pernod Ricard Fellowship. Items from his col­lec­tion of objects trans­formed by Cuban cit­i­zens for alter­na­tive uses will be dis­played alongside pirate cuban films, artists books and prints by Oroza, as well as new works inves­ti­gating how the con­tem­po­rary pro­cesses of stan­dard­iza­tion and nor­mal­iza­tion, stig­ma­tized by some intel­lec­tual dis­courses, can, para­dox­i­cally, act as vec­tors to expand ver­nac­ular prac­tices, ideas and everyday tac­tics. Works pro­duced during a work­shop with stu­dents from the Ecole Supérieure des Beaux-Arts d’Angers will also be on view. The artist will be pre­sent.
