ATTRACTION OPPOSSITE                          
www.attractionoftheopposites.nl
Curator: Kiki Petratou

Is a multidisciplinary project. It aims to question and reflect on the different aspects of our multifaceted culture through exhibitions and festivals, exchange and collaboration.

The selection of works under the title ATTRACTION OF THE OPPOSITES brings together digital and computer animations with traditional animation techniques like drawing based animation and stop motion animation.

 

Break
Serge Onnen
Netherland

Onnen brings drawing, animation, wallpaper, shadow and sounds together around a central theme and puts the art of drawing in a wider perceptive by initiating all kinds of projects. This is one of a series of animations from the last 4 years. Technically all very simple and close to the original drawing, mostly short loops, with soundtrack by Oorbeek.

 
Pagans
Adonis Migkos
Greece
Fascinated by the power of the drawing line and the brush stroke led Migkos to try and take it, not one step forward, but the opposite: going back in time and experiencing the real essence of both of them, witnessing, if possible, the same kind of feeling that the first cave man experienced when he was making those primitive, yet to the point, drawings of everyday life. Thus using the power of the simple line as a means of re-inventing it.

 
Evolizer
Jan van Nuenen
Netherland
Animated short/collage.
Black and white figures are moving around in a futurist city. One of the figures, carrying a mystic box, leads you inside a building. The box opens and begins to reveal its own laws of physics. Basic elements begin to modulate spontaneously creating more and more complex organic species. There’s a violent struggle for life. Who is the fittest?..

  Green Book 3
Adonis Migkos
Greece
Minimal drawing animation with sound
 
And_there_is_no news_under_the sun
Efrat Zehavi
Holanda
The sequence of animations “And there is no news under the sun” was inspired by the contemporary Dutch social-political reality with a special emphasis on the subject of immigration & integration. These subjects are much discussed in the news, and have raised old sentiments like the fear of losing identity, culture and the fear for the stranger (xenophobia).
The animations try to deal with this heavy subject with some humor and ironic distance, although with critical eyes.
Some of the characters in the animations are of Dutch politicians that were playing (and some still do) a major role in this issue like Geert Wilders, Rita Verdonk, Pim Fortuyn en Ayaan Hirsi Ali.
The animations present the frustration and powerlessness of mankind in its encounter with the force of (human) nature.

 
SET-4
Jan van Nuenen
Holanda
Found footage animation.
Noisy composition for table tennis table, volleyball and jumping board in image and sound.

 
Der Biss – Volute 1
Norbert Kraus
Alemania
Computer animation inspired by a cinerama box of two stuffed animals, a hermelin and a rat, bitten to death. The scene as a dancing fight comes to life for a moment and then freezes again.
The objects are broken down into faceted surfaces - becoming crystalline. When they are animated, they burst into "life", are given an "anima" and become part of a choreographic order. They originate from a wish to imitate. They get their expression through the interplay between a natural appearance and movement, from which at the same moment they are released. Realism and abstraction are put on the same level and are continually changing places. This process of taking possession changes and transforms, creating a grace, splendour and erotic of it's own. In this way the animations can be read as a form of poetry, following the sequence - perceiving - remembering - forgetting - meeting again.

 
Mac 'n' Cheese
Tom Hankins, Gijs van Kooten, Guido Puijk, Roy Nieteran
Holanda
“Mac 'n' Cheese” is an animated short directed and created by four students at the Utrecht School of Arts in the Netherlands. This roughly two-minute animation took five months and about a bajillion peanut butter sandwiches to make.


 
The_Awesome Storm Man
Aggelos Spartalis
Grecia

The awesome storm man is here! Battles are given again because of the same reason: To rebuild the relationships between environment, technology and society…

Artistic Differences
Jasper Scheepbouwer
Holanda
1939. The world is at war with itself. On one side, there is Mondriaan and his adherents. The neocubist is at the peak of his powers. He is making millions designing placemats and printed napkins. On the other side there is Picasso. The feisty Spaniard, humiliated to the core, is out for revenge.
