Albert Serra will present a unique preview of his latest in-development project聽Singularity. Commissioned for the Catalan participation at the Venice Biennale as a Collateral Event. The specially conceived event will explore Serra鈥檚 ongoing collaboration with curator Chus Martinez with an exclusive presentation of his upcoming project and a specially conceived performance by legendary musician聽Jordi聽Valls.
The season will launch with Serra鈥檚 most recent film聽Story of My Death聽2013 a baroque reflection on pleasure and desire that imagines a meeting between Casanova and Dracula. Earlier award winning films range from the minimalist take on Don Quixote in聽Honour of the Knights聽2006 to a reworking of the Biblical parable of the聽Three Kings in Birdsong聽2008. Unfolding in beautiful and often remote landscapes, these films mine history to create philosophical parables blending the mythical with聽the聽everyday.
