The 'Rencontres Internationales' offer more than a simple presentation of
the works. They introduce an intercultural forum gathering various guests
from all over the world - artists and filmmakers, institutions and emerging
organisations - to testify of the vivacity of creation and its distribution,
but also of the artistic and cultural contexts that often are experiencing
deep changes. The festival reflects specificities and crossings of art
practices between new cinema and contemporary art, explores media art
practices and their critical purposes, and work out this necessary time when
points of view meet and are exchanged.
The festival aims at presenting those works to a broad audience, at creating
circulations between different art practices and between different
audiences, as well as creating new exchanges between artists, filmmakers and
professionals. The 'Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin/Madrid', an
event without competition, are supported by French, German, Spanish and
international cultural institutions. http://art-action.org/en_soutien.htm

Best wishes.
