DIMIF 2018: Stan Brakhage - A Key Figure in the History of Experimental Filmmaking
DYSPLA is very proud to have exhibited American dyslexic filmmaker Stan Brakhage’s Window Water Baby Moving at the DYSPLA International Moving Image Festival this month. Regarded as one of the most important experimental filmmakers of the 20th century, for DYSPLA, Brakhage represents the very inception of the ‘Dyslexic Aesthetic’.
He was one of the first artists to push the boundaries of the visual image, and to expand our view of what film can be. He wasn’t just simply a filmmaker, but an artist with a real love for his craft; a practitioner of what he often referred to as ‘pure cinema’.
His inclusion in our festival has given an all-important additional contextual layer to the curation. Not only is he an artist from a different era, who paved the way for those after him, but the experimental artistic aesthetic of Window Water Baby Moving helped in giving our film festival an innovative art gallery feel.
Brakhage’s goal was the liberation of the eye itself, the creation of an act of seeing, previously unimagined and undefined by conventions of representation, an eye as natural and unprejudiced as that of a cat, a bee or an infant. There were few filmmakers who went so far to train audiences to see differently, and that’s why DYSPLA was so excited to have Stan Brakhage’s work included at DIMIF.
It is perhaps unsurprising that Brakhage's films are usually both silent, and lacking in traditional story-telling - thus focusing the viewer’s attention on the pure visual experience. In that, they become more analogous to visual poetry than to prose or literature. Brakhage often referred to his films as ‘visual music’ or ‘moving visual thinking’.
His films however, are not completely devoid of narrative, and DYSPLA’s choice of Window Water Baby Moving was not coincidental. The film tells a story of birth; a story of expectation, anticipation, pain, relief and joy - a story which connected immediately with our audience and exemplified part of the ‘Dyslexic Aesthetic’ which DIMIF sought to capture and showcase.
“How many colours are there in a field of grass to the crawling baby unaware of ‘green’? How many rainbows can light create for the untutored eye? Imagine a world alive with incomprehensible objects, and shimmering with an endless variety of movement and innumerable gradations of colour. Imagine a world before the ‘beginning was the word’.” - Stan Brakhage (Metaphors on Vision, 1963)
