L'Atelier national du Manitoba was a three-year filmmaking and art project based in Winnipeg, Canada that ran from 2005 to 2008. The club's artistic output was devoted to the artistic study of the history, culture and ephemera of Winnipeg and Manitoba. In collaboration, and individually under the l'Atelier rubric, the project's members created an array of short and feature-length films, videos, posters, curatorial showcases and essays.〔("Wicked and Weird," CBC.ca, August 16, 2006 )〕 ==Screening Series and Movies== On August 26–28, 2005, l'Atelier collaborated with Winnipeg artist Daniel Barrow to present the screening series, ''Garbage Hill: A Showcase of Discarded Winnipeg Film and TV'', held at the Winnipeg Film Group's Cinematheque. The series was a compendium of former cable access television shows from VPW and Cablevision, locally produced television commercials and under appreciated films from thirty years of Manitoba filmmaking. Barrow presented clips from cable TV shows, such as dance free-for-all ''The Pollock and Pollock Gossip Show'', repertory musical performance show ''The Cosmopolitans'', and the white Persian cat fan club TV-newsletter ''What's New Pussycat'', among others, with his signature overhead projector providing scrolling historical background on each show. L'Atelier national du Manitoba presented the history of locally produced, low-budget TV commercials in the feature-length video ''Kubasa in a Glass: the Fetishised Winnipeg TV Commercial 1976-1992''.〔(2006 Images Festival catalogue )〕 Barrow went on to continue collecting the work of 1980s cable access stars, and in 2009 Video Pool Media Arts Centre released, ''Winnipeg Babysitter,'' a DVD compendium of cable access clips featuring early performances of Guy Maddin, Marcel Dzama, Neil Farber, The Cosmopolitans, the Pollocks, and many more.〔()〕 In December 2005, l'Atelier national du Manitoba presented a 60 minute video-collage ''Death by Popcorn: the Tragedy of the Winnipeg Jets'' at the Winnipeg Film Group's Cinematheque for three screenings.〔("Plight of the 'Peg," by Alison Gillmor, CBC.ca, December 6, 2005 )〕 Subsequent to the video's Winnipeg premiere, l'Atelier became involved in a highly publicized public controversy and legal battle with media conglomerate CTV BellGlobeMedia over Fair Use of de-accessioned television footage.〔("Who's killing Death by Popcorn," by Val Ross, The Globe and Mail, July 5, 2006 )〕 Throughout 2006 and 2007, ''Death By Popcorn'' screened across Canada and the United States.〔("Death by Popcorn Hits Uncomfortably Close to Home for Oilers Fans," by David Berry, Vue Weekly, May 11, 2006 )〕〔(2009 Artengine catalogue )〕 In the summer of 2007, l'Atelier presented ''Beefs and Bouquets,'' a series of short programs of new films by friends and associated filmmakers such as Deco Dawson, Victoria Prince, Darryl Nepinak, Daniel Gerson and Eve Majzels, at the Winnipeg Cinematheque.〔("Will Burton show up?" by Walter Forsberg, June 21, 2007 )〕 In 2008, l'Atelier publicly denounced the City of Winnipeg's downtown development office, Centre Venture, for their alleged plans to raze historically significant portions of the city's Chinatown district.〔("Don't Mess with Chinatown," by L'Atelier national du Manitoba, Uptown Magazine, July 31, 2008 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Atelier national du Manitoba」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
