Curated by Chiara Ghidelli and Chiara Granata<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Found footage<\/em>, defined as \u201cthe practice of reusing preexisting material, edited so as to produce something that is at times abstract, at times ironic, political or counter informative<\/em>\u201d, is seemingly making a comeback. After being used in blockbuster movies and TV productions, whether commercial or auteur cinema, archive footage is finally being employed in fiction, video clips, and the mainstream world. This, despite being historically merely used in documentaries and niche productions. In the age of vintage craze, fake news<\/em>, and picture overdose, reusing archive footage is getting the validation and attention that it never got before.\u00a0

That\u2019s why, for its 22nd edition, the Concorto Film Festival decided to allocate a space to these new forms of expression: Mnemosyne<\/em>. The name \u201cMnemosyne<\/em>\u201d is a reference to the title of one of Warbug\u2019s works, which proved how our visual culture is filled with recurring images. Hence, the focus on analyzing and showing the conventions and aesthetics of found footage in today\u2019s world. Through fiction, documentaries, experimental forms of expression, and video clips, Mnemosyne <\/em>is therefore portraying this new trend, giving archive footage the chance to venture into all the spaces it couldn\u2019t explore before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
