"Exposing Muybridge" Documentary Screening 5 Aug 2022

Friday, 5 August, 20:30

Lanitis Carob Mill (Ceronia Hall), by the Medieval Castle of Limassol
Synopsis:
Few figures have played such a seminal role in our moving picture history as the revolutionary photographer Eadweard Muybridge. His unprecedented images of running horses instantly transformed the camera into a machine of unmatched powers of perception and persuasion, and set the course for the birth of cinema. Muybridge was a complicated man whose personal story was imbued with ambition, success, loss, and even cold-blooded murder. He directly inspired numerous artists from Francis Bacon to David Hockney to Gary Oldman, whose passionate contribution to this documentary is exceptional.

ΣΥΝΟΨΗ
Ο Chris Hondros ήταν ένας από τους καλύτερους φωτογράφους της γενιάς του, ο οποίος εργάστηκε σε εμπόλεμες ζώνες. Είχε καλύψει κάθε σημαντικό γεγονός στον πλανήτη κατά τη διάρκεια της ενήλικης ζωής του. Αρχίζοντας από τον πόλεμο στο Κόσσοβο το 1999, ο Chris έζησε από πρώτο χέρι τον πόλεμο και την καταστροφή για πάνω από 10 χρόνια, μέχρι και τον θάνατό του στη Λιβύη το 2011.

Chris Hondros was one of the best conflict photographers of his generation, having covered practically every major world event of his adult life. Beginning with the war in Kosovo in 1999, Chris served as witness to more than a decade of strife and conflict before he was killed in combat in Libya in April, 2011.
