Forum expanded 2009 Talk and Show
Die Podiumsdiskussionen im Rahmen von Forum expanded Talk and Show finden in englischer Sprache statt oder werden ins Englische übersetzt.
Episode 1: Sense of Architecture
The film "Sense of Architecture" shows 42 contemporary architectural projects of Austrian origins. As an independent work, it emerged from the material for 57 short films that Heinz Emigholz produced for the traveling exhibition conceived in Graz, Sense of Architecture.

Episode 2: Materiality - Conversations
Against a backdrop of the possibilities digitalisation provides, the centre of attention is the re-evaluation of the characteristics of formats like film, video, photography and television. Writers and filmtheorists talk with Forum and Forum expanded artists and filmmakers about their media.
mit Christa Blümlinger & Harun Farocki, Janine Marchessault & Michael Snow, Raymond Bellour über Bill Viola, Marc Siegel & Ludwig Schönherr, Rainer Bellenbaum & Katharina Sieverding. Moderation: Stefanie Schulte Strathaus & Anselm Franke

Episode 3: Film als Film
In 1977 Birgit Hein and Wulf Herzogenrath curated the film and video section at documenta 6. Their exhibition Film als Film: 1910 bis heute (Film as Film: 1910 to today), in Cologne in the same year “both broke new ground in the materials shown (which included preliminary drawings,
frame stills and diagrams, as well as projected 16mm film) and staked a claim for historical continuity across the canon of ‘formal film’.” (Ian Christie)
Film and video works as well as curatorial practices from that time will be re-considered.
mit Wulf Herzogenrath, Birgit Hein. Moderation: Christine Rüffert, Winfried Pauleit
09.02. 10:00 Arsenal 1 (freier Eintritt)
Episode 4: Culture Shock
Canadian artists Darryl Nepinak, Keesic Douglas, Bonnie Devine and Bear Witness were invited to respond to two films – one Karl May inspired film (from the former West Germany) and one East German "Red western" produced by the DEFA – by creating new short works based on them. They are acutely aware of the history and enduring power of the stereotypes they portray, and they are forging clear lines of demarcation between those works and contemporary Aboriginal society.
mit Bonnie Devine, Keesic Douglas, Maja Figge, Claus Löser, Steven Loft, Darryl Nepinak, Bear Witness, Claus Löser, Maja Figge. Moderation: Nanna Heidenreich.
