Quo Vado Italian Contemporary Film Festival June 9, 2016

Quo Vado Italian Contemporary Film Festival June 9, 2016

 

An exciting event, hosted by the Italian Contemporary Film Festival. On Thursday, June 9, 2016 at 2pm, we will be at the Italian Institute of Culture, 496 Huron St., Toronto, celebrating the upcoming International premier of hit comedy film, ā€œQuo Vadoā€ at the ICFF 2016 with actor/comedian Luca Medici a.k.a. Checco Zalone and Director Gennaro Nunziante. The film takes place in a small town in Italy, where government reform to cut bureaucracy creates a whole new and challenging reality for Checco, who grew up privileged, with a guaranteed job as a public servant.

 

In English, the title translates to ā€œWhere Am I Going?ā€ has hit home with Italians all too familiar with precarious working conditions, and is reflective of how the economy and job security have changed over the years in Italy. Ā Bypassing Star Wars, the film actually beat out Avatar for the top-grossing film in Italian box office history, generating well over 59 million euros.

 

The press conference is open for Q&A with Media Representative and general public.

Director, Gennaro Nunziante also wrote his films, and is best known for his 2013 film, ā€œWhat a Beautiful Dayā€. Luca Medici a.k.a. Checco Zalone has starred in various Nunziante films, with both writing and composition credits, including ā€œWhat a Beautiful Dayā€ (2011), ā€œCado dalle nubiā€ (2009), and ā€œSole a catinelleā€ (2013). He became famous in 2006 thanks to the song Siamo una squadra fortissimi.

 

Nunziante and Zalone share the same hometown of Bari, Italy, giving them a common world from which they can be inspired and collaborate to create such ground-breaking films as ā€œQuo Vadoā€. These two very talented artists obviously work very well together, and this film has put them on the map. It would be no surprise to see an increase in the popularity of their previous projects. Even more exciting will be to see what they come up with next!

Workman Arts ā€œPop Upā€ Gallery Toronto

Participating Artists: Barbara Greene Mann and Annette Seip.

The windows of Workman Arts ā€œPop-Up Galleryā€ space will be transformed by a multimedia installation featuring outlandish scenarios created in the stream-of-consciousness storytelling style of mixed media artist Barbara Greene Mann. Illuminated enlargements of Barbaraā€™s playful works will be complemented by a looped video installation featuring animations of Barbara within her own paintings, which have been created by Annette Seip. Both artists interweave fantasy and reality to magical effect, blurring the line between memory and imagination gone haywire.
Barbara Greene Mann is an MFA graduate in printmaking from Wayne State University (1973) and a founding member of the Tribes of the Cass Corridor in Detroit. She is a prolific artist who paints from memory and imagination. Barbara seeks inspiration from current global issues in order to portray her personal inventions to solve world problems. Her work has been exhibited in Canada, the United States, and Europe.

Annette Seip graduated with an MSc from McMaster and turned her talents to photography, digital work, and video art after many years in science. Her award-winning photography studies the relationship between order/chaos, isolation/connectedness, and light/darkness. She has exhibited in juried and solo shows, including Visual Arts Mississauga, Scotiabank Nuit Blanche, and CONTACT Photography Festival. R.M. Vaughan of Globe & Mail described Annetteā€™s ā€œIce Diamondā€ as a ā€œphotograph so dappled with liquid light, it could be mistaken for a Mary Pratt painting.
