The film containing images of what is "visible" to the contemporary or whatever, until then "invisible", is becoming visible.

Pierre Sorlin

The utopia that is every film born of a story and the mental representation of it is the operator. It is a ghost that is installed where the event by come is absent and definitely life before taking on film becomes embodied in the cartel, which stands as the foreground you see the film.

The Cuban movie poster, which is recognized as a revolution in the formal and conceptual patterns prevailing in the second half of last century has been the subject of theoretical and historiographical analysis to rank it as one of the paradigms of global cartelística . With this staging offer a tribute to the authors of the Cuban film industry, artists and designers who developed it around his artwork, and laid the foundations upon which advances the newest generation of creators.





Catalogue words


The cart, the horse ....



Mythology, while illusory consciousness,

can wipe out everything and erected it in the

center of a world stripped of all reality. In the middle of a desert populated by imaginary figures only by ghosts, which have to vanish just the viewer is forced to deal again with reality, ie to stop being a spectator.



(Tomas G. Alea, "Dialectics of the beholder")

The utopia that is every film born of a story and mental representation that he is the creator. It is a ghost who is staying right where the event to come is absent and definitely encouraged that before on film becomes embodied in the bill, which thus becomes the foreground we see a film.

A sign is always a call to action and specifically the movie poster reference material is a finished movie, it is usually an invitation to any seat in the darkroom We rent to dream. For its part, the Cuban movie poster, which is recognized as a revolution in the formal and conceptual patterns prevailing in the second half of last century has been the subject of theoretical and historiographical analysis to rank it as one of the paradigms of the world poster art.

We live proud of our film because it is grounded in creativity, imagination and the persistence of identity, rather than market share usury. His story is spun on the basis of works of true spirituality. It is precisely this apparent passion that triggers this exhibition of posters with the dissemination of symbols, pretending to offer a tribute to the authors of the Cuban film industry, artists and designers who developed it around his artwork, but since the armchair spectator space, this is not without anxiety, restlessness and pain, but the ease with which it is associated, makes it seem otherwise. Behind these posters with a variety of ideas and styles, there is a hypothesis. While the film up: Please yourself.



The visual artists who have designed these images have enjoyed freedom of design without unprecedented in the middle. The limits were the communication of an idea, this time under his own responsibility. While not appear to be committed to the film made - big mistake! - They are because they claim from the void, from nothing temporary. They are the sign of a productive talent, as well as reproductive capacity, represent the desire to make films, to bring to the screen dissimilar stories, play, provocative - says Perugorría - revelation, speculation, reconstruction, eagerness to swell the collective imagination heritage .



If the map (is) expected to land, then this desire to make posters want to be the prelude to (and see) films, we think that it will cease to be invisible someday, and that delivery will someday be true before our eyes Event .



Come and see.
