  From 2006, MAGIS - Gradisca International Film Studies Spring School will take
place in conjunction with the secondary level Master Program in Conception,
Preparation and Preservation of Contemporary Visual Arts (Ideazione, allestimento e

  The 4th edition of MAGIS - Gradisca International Film Studies Spring School will
focus on the relationship between cinema and contemporary visual arts, maintaining
its early intent of offering an international occasion of debate and dialogue among aca
demics, archivists, preservers, curators, critics, artists, students and young rescarchers.
The Spring School intends to be an important contribution to international research
projects dedicated to contemporary visual culture and the training of experts in the
field of audiovisual and contemporary arts.
   MAGIS-Gradisca International Film Studies Spring School will consist of lectures
held by university professors, as well as meetings with artists, curators and galleries
directors. Several workshops will be coordinated by international scholars and artists.
while video and film screenings, contemporary art exhibitions and work groups on spe
cific topics will also be offered. The Spring School activities are designed for Ph.D. stu-
 dents, graduate students, young researchers and young professionals in archives, muse
 ums and art galleries.

 MULTIPLE VERSIONS: CINEMA AND CONTEMPORARY VISUAL ARTS



  The scientific purpose of the School is not simply to think or re-think the idea of cin.
 ema as art, but also to investigate cinema as it is present in the contemporary arts: in
 performance and interactive installation, software art and mixed media, new forms of
 authorship and the use of practices typical of the cinematographic avant-garde, such as
 cut and paste or found footage.
   What is at stake here, is the analysis of the transformations that involve cinema and
visual arts in the Google era. That is, in the era of tele-presence and the crisis of the
museum exhibition, the hybridization of subjective creativity (authorial and artistic)
 with Information and Computer Technologies, and the end of traditional modes of
 reception and consumption of film and the other arts.

  The main fields of interest at IV MAGIS - Gradisca International Film Studies Spring
 School will be:


 Technologies and materials: variable media, expanded cinema, mixed media
 Multiple forms of the same event: performance, video-performance, video, video stills
  Re-mediation processes of a language, text, and visual art work
  Current relations between "artistic production" and "theoretical reflection"
  Aesthetic concepts: multi-expressivity, synaesthesia, tactile dimension, interaction
between the body of the work and the spectator's body
  Semiotic definitions: text, discourse, work/work of art, author, artist, spectator
  Exhibition, preservation and restoration, the archive: know-how, institutions and
cultural politics
  Direct and indirect impact of new aesthetic forms, the effect of the apparatus on
social practices: the complex and articulated process of production, circulation, trans-
mission and reception of the work of art
  Philological and historiographical work: methods and theoretical instruments

 A section of the School will also be dedicated to the topic of multiple versions at the
beginning of the sound era, developed and investigated in the three preceding years of
the School.
