Raw Materials: Present Impressions, Past Wishes and Future Fulfillment
<p><em>Alexander Kluge. Raw Materials: Present Impressions, Past Wishes and Future Fulfillment</em> presents a selection of the filmmaker’s eclectic collection of ‘raw materials’, a series of television programmes assembling photographs, drawings, diagrams and diverse footage construed to ‘strengthen the muscles of [our] power of imagination’. Alexander Kluge, a central figure of the German cultural landscape – as a film-maker, writer and television producer – has been tackling for the past fifty years with the capacity of fantasy to organise individual experience otherwise concealed by structures of consciousness and the screens capturing our attention.</p>
