(22.E) Keynote Address / Présentation spéciale: Anand Patwardhan «Censorship: Within and Without» (simultaneous translation/traduction simultanée)
Anand Patwardhan is India’s most honoured and controversial documentary filmmaker. An independent activist artist based in Mumbai, Patwardhan has been committed since the 1970s to the development of politically challenging documentary forms, and to the struggle for freedom of speech, peace, and social/economic justice. He is best known internationally for his prizewinning feature documentaries such as Bombay our City (1985), In the Name of God (1992), Father, Son and Holy War (1994), and War and Peace (2002), which is being shown as our opening screening at Visible Evidence XII. His keynote address critiques the global processes of information gathering and dissemination in the post-9/11 world. He blows the whistle on the continuing prevalence of censorship and self-censorship within documentary culture through case studies from local and global media.
Anand Patwardhan est le documentariste indien le plus primé et controversé des vingt dernières années. Citoyen de Mumbai, artiste activiste indépendant, Patwardhan prône depuis les années 70 le développement de pratiques documentaires politiquement engagées. Il se bat également pour la liberté d’expression, la paix et une plus grande justice socio- économique. Il est internationalement reconnu pour ses long-métrages primés Bombay our City (1985), In the Name of God (1992), Father, Son and Holy War (1994) et War and Peace (2002). Ce dernier fait d’ailleurs office de projection d’ouverture de Visible Evidence XII. Sa présentation spéciale est une critique du processus globalisant de rassemblement et de diffusion de l’information dans le monde post-11 septembre. Fondant sa démarche critique sur l’analyse de nombreux médias locaux et globaux, il dénonce avec vigueur la prédominance continue de la censure et de l’auto-censure au sein de la culture documentaire.
