Manifesto

Manifesto (2017)

Manifesto

Manifesto recurre a las escrituras de futuristas, dadaístas, artistas de Fluxus, suprematistas, situacionistas, Dogma 95 y otros grupos de artistas, y las reflexiones de artistas individuales, arquitectos, bailarines y cineastas, editándolas y volviéndolas a ensamblar como un collage de manifiestos de artistas, finalmente cuestionando el papel del artista en la sociedad de hoy. Al realizar estos "nuevos manifiestos" mientras habitan trece personas diferentes, entre ellos un maestro de escuela, un titiritero, un lector de noticias, un trabajador de una fábrica y un vagabundo, Cate Blanchett imbuye nueva vida dramática en estas famosas palabras en contextos inesperados. Una versión cinematográfica de esta instalación de arte se estrenará en el Festival de Cine de Sundance 2017.

Manifesto is a 2015 multi-screen film installation written, produced and directed by Julian Rosefeldt. It features Cate Blanchett in 13 different roles performing various manifestos. The film was shot over 12 days in December 2014, in locations in and around Berlin.

Production

Rosefeldt began developing the project by researching and analysing an assortment of textual manifestos. He selected approximately 60 manifestos that he considered "the most fascinating and most requitable" or he thought corresponded to one another.

Rosefeldt's main concept for the project was to have a woman embody the manifestos. He wanted to "make a piece in which a woman performed multiple roles" in an art-based framework. In parallel, I began to sketch different scenes in which a woman talks, ending up with sixty short scenes, situations right across various educational levels and professional milieus.

Rosefeldt described the process of scripting as "very organic". He edited, combined and rearranged texts into new texts "that could be spoken and performed". He was attracted to the idea of alluding to "a collection of voices, a conversation", and reframing those voices "into new monologues".

Manifesto was commissioned by the ACMI, in partnership with the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Museum für Gegenwart, Sprengel Museum, and Ruhrtriennale Festival of the Arts. The film was subsidised by the Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg with €90,000.

Production on the film began on 9 December 2014, lasting 12 days. The conditions under which the crew and actress worked in the Berlin winter, including the very tight time frame, allowed little room for improvisation. The crew had to "plan the shoot meticulously" as sometimes they had to shoot two roles per day.
