Johann Rescigno works with a documentary approach
towards his films, while transmuting into
fictional stories. His starting point are
day-to-day issues of his close surroundings,
which then can shed the light to some greater
matter. At the time he combines narrative methods
with elements of early Avant-garde and Nouvelle
Vague. His search for a personal language and
expression beyond the documentary school urged
him to progress from earlier studies at film
school to art school in Metz and further to "Film
and Creative Documentaries Direction" in
Strasbourg, where he finished his Master. His
pictures combine a sensitive research of places
and people with an essayistic image-oriented
montage creating open and atmospherical
depictions that give to the viewer space for
interpretation.
In his films, Rescigno keeps coming back to
themes concerning the region Lorraine, where he
grew up. Lorraine used to be the prospering
French coal mining area, connected with the
German Ruhrgebiet by the so called Montanunion
(European Coal and Steel Community) after the
Word War II. With deindustrialization, the region
has undergone difficult changes still under way.
The films of the artist investigate questions of
identity in the changing post-industrial
landscape, and when the term migration is at risk
to change meaning in French society.
The artist will be available for Q&A.
