Peter Tscherkassky
von Alexander Horwath, Drehli Robnik und Peter Tscherkassky, herausgegeben von Alexander Horwath und Michael LoebensteinPeter Tscherkasskys Filme spielen eine zentrale Rolle beim international wieder erwachten Interesse am Avantgardefilm. An der Wende von der fotografischen zu einer digitalen Kultur der bewegten Bilder durchläuft sein Werk seit 1980 eine aufregende Kurve – vom anarchischen Gestus des Super-8-Film über die Auseinandersetzung mit Semiotik und Psychoanalyse hin zur wieder entdeckten Freude am physischen Material und Überwältigungspotential des Kinos. Tscherkasskys Arbeit ist eine befreiende Neu-Aneignung und Feier von FILM: vollständig rekonstruiert und in CinemaScope.
*** The films of Peter Tscherkassky have played a central role in the international reawakening of interest in avant-garde film. At the turn from a photographic to a digital culture of moving images, his work has run an exciting course – from the anarchic gesture of Super-8-filmmaking through an engagement with pyschoanalysis and semiotics towards a newfound pleasure at the physicality of the medium and its potential to overwhelm the audience in more ways than one. Tscherkassky’s work since 1980 is a liberating excercise in re-appropriating and celebrating FILM: fully restored in CinemaScope.
