Reruns is a new series of events that invites artists and cultural practitioners to engage with the work of others and present their own responses to it. Through situated formats such as informal talks, readings, commented screenings, and other contributions, the series explores different ways of addressing and revisiting artistic practices. In doing so, it opens up more direct and at times deeply personal forms of engagement, guided by affinity, admiration, curiosity, and subjective interpretations of a given work.

To inaugurate the series, the Copenhagen-based roving cinema Terrassen presents a screening of short films by the late American poet and author Fanny Howe in the foyer of the Kunstverein. The event offers a rare glimpse into a lesser-known part of Howe’s practice, one that extends and sharpens the poetic, political, and philosophical sensibility running through her writing, all the while paying little attention to the boundaries of genre.

Films:
Annotated slideshow from the making of the film Bridget of Murroe (2015, 7 min)
Simone Weil Avenue (1994, 9 min)
Embryonic, made in collaboration with Maceo Senna (year unknown, 9 min)
What Nobody Saw (1987, 16 min)
Be Again (1992, 8 min)
Off Shoot [missing film] (1994, unknown length)

A special selection of Howe’s books, published by Divided Publishing, along with a book on Yvonne Rainer published by Terrassen, will be available for purchase during the event.

Terrassen engages with the social life of film. Previous screenings and events organized by Terrassen have included programs featuring Terre Thaemlitz, Trinh T. Minh-ha, Edward Owens, Yvonne Rainer, Ogawa Productions, and Nina Menkes. All their screenings are free and everyone is welcome.
