Maria Lassnig, the internationally acclaimed Austrian artist, founded the animation film studio at the Angewandte in 1982. Since then the Department of Painting and Animated Film has been in existence, since 2009 it has been led by Prof. Judith Eisler. The Animation Film Studio is and has always been a place of experimentation and search for new forms of expression, fathoming the medium film. In cooperation with Volxkino, four preliminary films by students will be shown, ranging from socially critical themes to personal hopes, fears and experiences. Here a cinematic territory is explored, an exciting journey into the unknown.
