Nicolas Mahler
TRIBUTE TO...
Date: Tuesday, 31 May 2011, 8 p.m.
Location:Metro Kino
As a comic artist Nicolas Mahler has acquired world renown, as well as an admiring host of fans, with his minimalist style and absurd humour. When transforming static images into (sparingly) animated ones, Mahler always stays true to his reduced style. For several years now he has not only been a regular at comic salons, but also at short and animated film festivals. VIS invited the Viennese artist to present all 35 minutes of his own animated work, along with inspiring films from respected colleagues.
Total length: 65 min
