Special programme of short films and videos by Diego Marcon followed by a converstation between the artist and Eva Sangiorgi, Director Viennale
Diego Marcon’s work draws upon different cinematic vocabularies from diverse genres including musicals, melodrama, horror and slapstick comedy. His uncanny, singular imagery employs various technical devices such as robotics, prosthetics and CGI. Words, sounds and gestures contribute to the troubling uncertainty or ambiguity that underpins Marcon’s work. Specially-commissioned soundtracks or scripted dialogue are fundamental to his films, developed with careful attention to language and its mutability.
