‘ENGAGING SPACES’ – FILM + ARCHITECTURE

The CAFx Summer School 2018 will focus on architectural space as a tool for social integration in Skagen.

Join the Summer School in Skagen and explore the architectural spaces of social integration under the guidance of filmmakers and architects. The summer school is a collaboration between the Copenhagen Architecture Festival (CAFx) and the association Onsdagsskolen, headed by architect Susanne Eeg. During the week you will also meet renowned documentary filmmaker Lea Glob, scenographer Maja Ziska, filmmaker and photographer Sidsel Becker and anthropologist Tine Sønderby as well as local architects, cultural associations, businesses and citizens. Through the medium of film, they will all work with the participants to investigate and make portraits of the spaces of social integration in Skagen- be it in the fish factories, restaurant kitchens, local halls, shared apartments or maybe even imaginary.

Participants will work individually or in groups to sketch, build scale models, create small installations, photograph and finally film. The final films will be screened publicly to a wider audience in the Skagen cinema.

If you are a student, a professional in the fields of architecture, film, spatial design or visual anthropology or if you are simply interested in these fields and have basic experience working with film, sign up now for our summer school in August 2018.

The 2018 Summer School has been conceived by CAFx with support from https://www.facebook.com/pages/Frederikshavn/106053542759503" target="_blank">Frederikshavn Municipality and https://www.facebook.com/danishfilminstitute/" target="_blank">Danish Film Institute and realised in collaboration with the Association Onsdagsskolen.
