The Filmoteca hosts this cycle with projections around design under the umbrella of World Design Capital Valencia 2022. On April 28, ‘Golden Bricks’ (2017) will be screened. The documentary, directed by the Chinese filmmaker Tan Hongyu, goes through one of the last centers of artisanal production of the famous gold bricks used throughout the centuries in the imperial palace of the Forbidden City. The documentary also deals with the reinterpretation of this traditional ceramic product by a contemporary artist, the French ceramist Jacques Kaufmann.
Within this same session, La Filmoteca will screen the Valencian documentary ‘Enric Mestre, la imprint of the landscape’ (2019), directed by Luis H. Pardo, Ismael López and Rafaela Pareja and produced by Melany Pérez Scholthman and Carlos García Aranda for VaProd. The film analyzes the work of the ceramic sculptor Enric Mestre through the commentary of the art critic Román de la Calle, focusing especially on the mark left by the Alboraya landscape on the sculptural and pictorial work of this ceramic artist.
