Christoph Girardet
Directing
- Born
- November 24, 1966 (age 59) · Langenhagen, Germany
Born in 1966, he is a German video artist and filmmaker. Girardet makes both the accidentally found and the extensively researched found footage from the archives of film history the subject of his art. Montage, omissions, and repetitions reveal the underlying structures and inner mechanisms of cinematic reality. Beyond this analysis of material and its clichés, his work engages with a melancholic sense of absence, creating an individual pictorial world. Girardet’s films were twice showcased in the In Silico competition: Personne (2016) and It Was Still Her Face (2017).
