Art Brut Week end at cinema City Club Pully

The first weekend of February, the Cinema CityClub is putting a spotlight on raw art.

On Saturday the 6th, there will be a harp‑voice musical project with raw texts, as well as a Swiss documentary that profiles four artists; and the following day a full day featuring an amazing improv choir, a brunch, and an animated film.

SATURDAY 6 FEBRUARY: CINÉ‑CONCERT RAW ART

7:00 PM: SCREENING OF LONELY VISIONS – LONELY CREATORS FROM MAYENNE, BASTIEN GENOUX AND MARIO DEL CURTO IN PRESENCE OF THE DIRECTORS
(Documentary, Switzerland, 2015, 57’, 16/16)
The film uses the universe of four outstanding autodidact creators as its stops. In their respective workshops, we gently and discreetly move through their inner worlds. With lucidity, they speak about life, their art, and share the urgency of creation.

9:00 PM: CONCERT "THOUSAND THINGS OF EARTH" – A PROJECT BY CÉLINE HÄNNI (CH)
Harp, voice, shortwave, and raw or almost raw texts
Céline Hänni traded conservatories for the “conversatoire,” a broader field for experimentation, open to the world. Curious, virtuosic, and a chanter of oblique music, she loves sonic and textual assemblages, trans‑artist traverses marked by a harvest of influences gathered here and there. For this adopted musico‑fiend, raw art is an art full of zest, bustling, made of impulses, forces and movements. An inexhaustible source of discovery, and a powerful antidote to soft thinking. She interprets here texts that jolt and question the uniqueness of our existence. Texts by William Blake, Samuel D., Emily Dickinson, Emile Joséphine Hodinos, Aimable Jayet, Jack Kerouac, Laure, Sylvain Lecoq, Marmor, Henri Müller, Fernando Oreste Nannetti, and Fernando Pessoa.

Doors open: 6:30 PM,
Screening: 7:00 PM, Concert: 9:00 PM
Prices: 25.-/20.- (member, students, AVS, AI, RI, Culture card)

SUNDAY 7 FEBRUARY: LABORATORY‑EXPLORATORY JUBILATORY

10:00 AM: IMPRO CHORUS WORKSHOP
You consider singing to be vague, to be soft; you dream of exploring gargles, mouth noises and stomach rumblings beyond the shower; you feel your voice to coo, whistle, push a sonata, yell, hum: join gladly this improv choir! A space‑time for wandering and reckless spontaneity.
During this workshop, Céline Hänni, harpist and singer, will guide you through voice, resonances, timbres, multiple colorations and rhythmic pulses. With a holistic approach engaging the body and senses, sound, space and listening will be explored in a collective setting.
Only prerequisite: curiosity.

Duration: 2 h. By reservation only (limited places – from age 12): [email protected]

12:00 PM: BRUNCH
Do you want to eat something fun, prepared with care and inventiveness? Because at CityClub, we also love to indulge our taste buds; here's your chance to feed yourself after the choir, before the film, or in between.

2:00 PM: SCREENING OF THE FILM "THE TALE OF THE GOLDEN SAND" IN PRESENCE OF DIRECTORS FREDÉRIC AND SAMUEL GUILLAUME(Animation, Switzerland, 2015, 1h05, 0/6)
This is a very lovely fantasy tale about self‑image and the beauty of the unknown. The Guillaume brothers, well‑known in the world of animation cinema, created, with the assistance of 143 students (ages 4 to 18) with disabilities from the Fondation Les Buissonnets in Fribourg, a film following a two‑year process during which the entire school was involved. A participatory creation process, the meeting of cinema and specialized education. The story of a joyful hamlet, an invasion of eyes and the search for the Golden Sand. Film screening followed by its making‑of, both of which were truly very beautiful.

Doors open: 9:30 AM, Impro Choir: 10 AM–12 PM (by reservation only)
Brunch: 12:30 PM
Screening with directors: 2 PM
Participation in improv choir workshop: 30.- (includes brunch and film). By reservation only to [email protected]
