DIRECT APPROACH is an ongoing art project since 2012, in which Stine Marie Jacobsen, together with different collaborators, activates pop-cultural narratives on violence from film and cinema in relation to specific socio-biographic contexts. Between fiction and experienced violence – for DIRECT APPROACH Jacobsen has worked with young people between 13 and 25 in a series of workshops to address the subjective perception of violence in the context of marginalization, discrimination and racism through short films, interviews and movie posters.
Within the scope of the exhibition District shows six of the resulting short films as well as 17 movie posters with remembered descriptions of the scenes in an experimental cinema setting.
DIRECT APPROACH is a collaboration between District Kunst- und Kulturförderung and Gangway e.V., supported by Berliner Projektfonds für Kulturelle Bildung.
Realised with kind support by Danish Art Council, filmArche, CinePlus and Eiszeitkino.
