Exhibiting an Interdisciplinary Archive: Curatorial practice of the essay film as a way of reassessing cinematic works, with a case study of Margarida

我的研究将考虑策展和跨学科框架如何能够帮助重新评估和重新设置与其他学科和领域相关的电影史和档案的背景。我将专注于葡萄牙导演Margarida Cordeiro和António Reis(1963-1989)的散文式电影，寻求不同的方式来展示这两人的作品，超越标准的电影放映形式，反映画廊空间和图书格式如何帮助我们在文学、民族志、绘画和精神病学领域探索它们的来源。这个基于策展的跨学科项目旨在：增进对策展在重新想象档案方面的关键的了解，并挑战与作者、流派、国籍相关的类别；了解策展研究如何通过借鉴不同的学科，建立创新的联系和概念，从而推进理论思维；结合散文电影的概念，提出独创的策展形式。

My research will consider how curatorial and transdisciplinary frameworks can help in reassessing and recontextualizing film history and archives in relation to other disciplines and domains.I will focus on the essayistic films by Portuguese auteurs Margarida Cordeiro and António Reis (1963- 1989), pursuing different ways to display the duo's works beyond standard forms of cinematic projection, reflecting on how the gallery space and the book format can help us to explore their sources in the fields of literature, ethnography, painting and psychiatry.This curatorial-based, transdisciplinary project aims at:To advance knowledge of how curation is key in reimagining archives, and challenging categories related to authorship, genre, nationality;To understand how curatorial studies, by drawing on different disciplines, can establish innovative connections and concepts, thus advancing theoretical thinking;To propose original forms of curation considering the concept of the essay film.
