The Canadian Film Institute’s (CFI) long-running guest artist Canadian experimental cinema series, Café Ex, continues to celebrate its milestone 25th season with Ottawa-based moving image maker Matthieu Hallé.
For over a decade, Hallé has been exploring the complex, often electrifying aesthetic effects of the intersections of cinematic language, interactive performance, and the materiality of film medium itself. His absorbing, immersive, occasionally haunting work includes film and video, as well as moving image creations for live performance in collaboration with other artists and musicians.
This Café Ex presentation, curated by Hallé, will incorporate all these aspects of his distinctive and decidedly exploratory cinematic practice.
Since the series began in 1998, Café Ex has presented 70 different Canadian moving image artists at its 80 shows over 24 seasons of screenings, artist talks, book launches, and interactive cinema experiences.
