BEYOND MEDIA FESTIVAL
In 2008, Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine decided to document the daily life in one of the masterpieces of contemporary architecture: the House in Bordeaux designed in 1998 by Rem Koolhaas / OMA. And they decided to do so in a rather provocative manner, by following the stories and daily chores of Guadalupe Acedo, the home'...s housekeeper, and of the other people who look after the building. Unlike most movies about architecture, this feature focuses less on explaining the building and its virtuosity than on letting the viewer enter into the daily intimacy of an architectural icon.
The screening of Koolhaas Houselife is scheduled for Saturday July 11 at 10 pm, and it will be anticipated by a conversation among Roberto Zancan, Axel Soxa and Gabriele Mastrigli on the film.

BEYOND MEDIA FESTIVAL
Experimental Media in Italy: The New Domestic Landscape, MoMA 1972
BEYOND MEDIA presents - thanks to the recent reinterpretation by Peter Lang, Luca Molinari and Mark Wasiuta - an exceptional selection of videos which were originally produced on the occasion of the exhibition curated by Emilio Ambasz at the Museum of Mo...dern Art in New York City in 1972. The exhibition "encountered the dynamic and complexly political Italian design context of the early seventies, which it examined and organized into a matrix of categories, differences and distinctions" and it consecrated the radicalism and anticonformism of Italian design, in the works of Sottsass Jr., Colombo, Superstudio, Pesce.
On Friday July 10, starting at 10:30 pm, the public will be able to watch, over 30 years later, these unique and precious documents which will be commented by Peter Lang (Texas A&M University).
Ettore Sottsass Jr. (directed by Massimo Magri), untitled, IT 1972; Superstudio, Supersurface: An Alternative Model for Life on Earth, IT 1972; Joe Colombo (directed by Livio Castigloni and Gianni Colombo), Total Furnishing Unit, IT 1972; Gae Aulenti (directed by Massimo Magri), untitled, IT 1972; Mario Bellini (directed by Davide Mosconi), untitled, IT 1972; Gaetano Pesce (directed by Klaus Zaugg), untitled, IT 1972; Alberto Rosselli (directed by Osvaldo Marini, with Ernesto Prever), An Idea for a Mobile House, IT 1972; Marco Zanuso, Richard Sapper (directed by Giacomo Battiato), untitled, IT 1972.
Don't miss the chance to watch these unique and precious documents, commented by Peter Lang (Texas A&M University)
