ANIMA'09 - V Córdoba International Animation Festival
Academic Forum - Identity Traits
Organizing Committee: Lic. Lic. Carmen Garzón, Lic. Alejandro R. González
Organizing Institution: Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Argentina
Like every artistic production, animation is affected by the
historical and cultural context from which it emerges, as a result of
the dialogue between the diversity of disciplines that animation
implies (the visual arts, cinema, drama, design, music, literature,
etc.).
For this edition of ANIMA we propose reflecting on what we consider
identity traits. For example, those emergent characteristics of a
process where a diversity of subjects, ways of production and meanings
come together in a dynamic way and are in permanent transformation. We
are interested in questioning about these traits, and for this matter
we would like to invite the numerous social agents involved to share
a place for reflection and encounter so as to contribute to such
process in continuous elaboration and change, conscious that in this
cycle resides the richness of animation.
Organizing concept: Considering that all cultural productions are
emergent of historical-cultural contexts which they affect, we
wonder:
What kind of dialogue settles down between the artistic productions of
the animation field and the historical and cultural context from which
they emerge?
How do these productions affect their context?
How does the subjectivity of the author impact on the configuration of
the piece?
Could we consider that the artistic production of animation, as a
cultural product that emerges in a determined context of production,
acquires and/or generates particular identity traits?
We call for papers and / or multimedia presentations on these
concepts, which will be peer - reviewed by a Scientific Committee.
Those selected will be invited to take part of a seminar and a
publication.
