Directors: Marta Rodriguez, Jorge Silva
1975, 51', b&w
Spanish with Turkish subtitles

Why and how do peasant and indigenous communities pass from social submission to a process of organisation? This question drove the making of Marta Rodriguez and Jorge Silva’s Campesinos, airing a masterful poetics of the portrait with Brechtian re-enactments of working conditions on colonial coffee plantations in 1970s Colombia. The documentary is at once a call to self-organisation and revolt, and a lucid analysis of indigenous struggle and the significance of land.

Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel

In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
