2008 THEME : PREOCCUPATION

This them concerns the actual preoccupation of each FemLink artist, whether it be positive or negative, personal,
political or metaphysical; potentially a snapshot of the world in 2008.

The festival broadcasted four programs; documentary, fiction, animation and art. There were three special programs from KAN festival, CultureTV and an additional isfth program with films from James Harvey, The City of Photographers by Sebastian Moreno and four recent works from Dré Didderiëns . This program was curated by Mak Kapetanovic.

We screened 18 hours of independent films from over 20 different countries. The Festival was proud to present these films and their makers to you.

Isfth organized the Streaming Festival with the kind support from xs4all and the Cultuurfonds.

Arte comunitario y ‘feroz’
Grimanesa Amorós y su forma de concientizar a la comunidad en temas de salud y culturales
Hector Velarde
Un camión pintado de colores verde, celeste y blanco, con grandes dientes que sobresalen en la parte trasera y enormes burbujas de acrílico en donde aparecen niños sonrientes, se pasea por las zonas rurales del estado de Nueva York.
No es un camión de helados ni de un mini circo rodante, sino de una clínica dental móvil que pertenece a la organización Hudson River HealthCare, Inc. (HRHCare), que fue diseñada pensando en los pequeños, por la artista peruana Grimanesa Amorós.
Este proyecto fue bautizado por Amorós como ‘Ambulante’, no es el único realizado por la artista para presentar al aire libre, ya que otros de su autoría se exhiben actualmente en la ciudad de Nueva York: ‘Terrarium’, en la calle Hudson en Tribeca, en Manhattan, a igual que ‘Frente Feroz’, en la calle 125 y Park Avenue, Harlem.
