Two short film programs
Breitenseer Lichtspiele, 2026

Since 2023, filmmaker and artist Lotte Schreiber has been curating the FOCUS ON film series at the Breitenseer Lichtspiele cinema. She offers artists a platform to present their works in solo programs. With “Redirecting the Focus: Lotte Schreiber”, The Golden Pixel Cooperative proposes a shift in perspective, turning the screen toward Lotte Schreiber’s own experimental documentary films. Both film programs will be followed by a Q&A.

To take form at its word, or to make it visible through a cinematic process of translation. In her film language, Lotte Schreiber surveys an architectural reality without duplicating it. She approaches structuralist housing blocks in Trieste and on the outskirts of Rome, concrete skeletons in the winter landscape of Greece, the cabin town of Gänsehäufel in autumn, the Wittgenstein House, exhibition spaces, municipal housing estates and other social utopias of collective living. She enters these spaces and, at the same time, opens up new ones with her films. Political and historical contexts are revealed in layers. Her formal language is clear and in direct exchange with her protagonists, which are mostly buildings and landscapes. The often static shots never appear rigid – even in a still image, wild movements occur within the structure of the rough film grain. Working across a variety of film and video formats, Schreiber never allows time to disappear into the material. Through unexpected ruptures in the montage, she repeatedly brings us back to the present, and thus into the cinema space.

Short film program
Followed by a Q&A with Nora Sweeney
Austrian Filmmuseum, 2026

Based in Los Angeles, filmmaker Nora Sweeney portrays people, landscapes and everyday realities with care and attentiveness. We are pleased to collaborate with the Austrian Film Museum for this screening of her 16mm films, followed by a conversation about her work and process.

At a train yard in Cincinnati, Ohio, Nora Sweeney captures an upside-down image with a self-made camera obscura, turning freight trains into slow shooting stars and bringing the sky down to earth. With “Fausto and Emilio”, featuring two elderly brothers in their downtown Cincinnati barbershop, she takes us through a window into an earlier time: turquoise barber chairs, porcelain sinks, vintage postcards from Italy and other memorabilia tell their own stories. Across the country in Southern California, we visit Inez’s chicken yard, migrant workers Jaime, Blanca, and Hugo picking fruit in the orange groves, elderly Armenian men playing games in Maple Park in Glendale, and people from different communities and neighborhoods passing time along the Los Angeles River. Filming alone on a Bolex using 16mm film, Nora Sweeney embraces a certain kind of intimate slowness inherent to both the process and the final form, in which every single image is precious. She may not always share the same language as her protagonists, but they seem to understand and trust each other mutually.

Short film program
Festival The New Normal
Volkstheater, Vienna, 2021

Conference Situated in the global
IFK/University of Art Linz, 2022

Animals, plants, viruses, objects, algorithms and weather phenomena: they all interact with us. We are intertwined with innumerable organisms within ecological circuits. As unsettling as the Faustian pact with technology may seem in this light, we depend on it if we are to find a way out of the current crises. The Vienna-based platform for art and moving image, The Golden Pixel Cooperative, is curating a late-night film program especially for “The New Normal”: jumping through decades and genres, the Rote Bar at Volkstheater presents cinematic confrontations on people and nature, on the environment and the Capitalocene, on entanglements and liminal borders (including films by Lisa Rave, Katrin Hornek, Enar de Dios Rodríguez). Flora, fauna, proliferation - in 25 frames per second.

Short film program at national park Gesäuse, 2021

Stones exist all over the planet, playing an important part of our shared human environment. We reach for them, process them and corrode them, in order to obtain valuable raw materials. Without inherent power, rocks are moved by human intervention, and forces such as erosion, wind, earthmoving or other organisms. The film program “Reframing Nature: Stone Narratives” tells of personal and industrial relationships between humans and stones. Within the cinematic frame, the rocks come to life – set in motion and artistic form.

Organized by The Golden Pixel Cooperative in collaboration with national park Gesäuse, with films by Enar de Dios Rodríguez, Nicole Krenn & Lisa Truttmann, Lisa Rave, Jan Švankmajer, Katharina Swoboda, presented by Katharina Swoboda und Lisa Truttmann.

Two short film programs traveling between
Vienna, Los Angeles and elsewhere, 2021

Two Journeys is a project by The Golden Pixel Cooperative, conceived by Viktoria Schmid and Lisa Truttmann, in collaboration with Los Angeles-based filmmakers Rebecca Baron and Nora Sweeney.

Through this ­collective ­exchange, two short film programs were compiled, consisting of films that relate broadly to the two places of their creation, Vienna and Los Angeles. Austria and the United States are just starting points – we travel to a library in Buenos Aires, a ranch in rural Mexico, the sky in ­Switzerland, a pool in Tehran and through ­intangible spaces and surfaces. The films, including documentary, ­experimental, and narrative work, range in form, and some defy categories. The works of pioneers such as Chick Strand, Charles Burnett and Friedl vom Gröller are in ­dialogue with those of filmmakers from the next ­generation. Taking the title from Vienna to Los ­Angeles: Two Journeys, Esther McCoy’s collection of letters between architects residing in Los Angeles and Vienna, the Two Journeys ­project aims to create a cross cultural conversation through cinema.

With films by Charles Burnett, Joie Estrella Horwitz, Victoria Fu, Juan Pablo González, Friedl vom Gröller, Luis Gutiérrez Arias, Adele Horne, Rosa John, Karl-Heinz Klopf, Nathalie Koger,Laura Kraning, Claudia Larcher, Brigid McCaffrey, Dorit Margreiter, Simona Obholzer, Sasha Pirker, Marlies Pöschl, Raphael Reichl, David de Rozas, Lotte Schreiber, Chick Strand, Katharina Swoboda, John Henry Theisen and Antoinette Zwirchmayr.

Symposium at Medienwerkstatt Vienna, 2018

The symposium Framed Existences addresses various artistic strategies of depicting the world and its social, political, and ecological systems. Their specific approaches to ‘framing’ humans and non-humans contribute significantly to our perception of the subject involved. As a result, they produce social, political, and cultural valuations and effects.

With contributions by:
Jana Seehusen: framing with/out frames
Nika Autor: Aesthetics in Politically Engaged and Committed Artistic Practice
Sílvia das Fadas: Auguries for a Non-Hierarchical Framing and Flourishing
Angela Anderson: Three (or More) Ecologies: A Feminist Articulation of Eco-Intersectionality

Organized by members of The Golden Pixel Cooperative, Katharina Swoboda, Lydia Nsiah, Marlies Pöschl, Lisa Truttmann
