11° FESTIVAL INTERNAZIONALE CINEMA GIOVANI
Italian Competition 1993 - Non Fiction
DUO WITH PETER KOWALD
Country: Italy
Year: 1993
Duration: 12'30''
An improvisation for contrabass and videocamera.
"The first anticlip of the series, Duo, in which the relationship between the image and the music is drastically restored through the communication between the two objects, the camera and the contrabass, at the moment of the improvisation. It was a fundamental that I chose a montage almost without cuts and used 'invisible' postproduction workmanship." (Salvo Cuccia)
