《“C for Courage” - An exhibition for children》 28 May – 6 June 2005

Valid for All Children - Everyone and Everywhere in the World!
12/05/2005 :: C for Courage is a different exhibition for children. C for Courage puts children’s rights on the local agenda, and invites children to learn more about their own rights. 2005 is the centennial anniversary of Norway, and the Norwegian Embassy in Beijing, together with the Hart Center in 798 Art District, are proud to announce that C for Courage will visit Beijing on 28 May to 6 June – as one of 10 countries in 2005!
Some children have to be very brave just to go to school. Some children don’t have any identity papers. Some children have to work, while others have everything they need. There is a Convention on the Rights of the Child, which says that every child in the world should have the same opportunity to live and to grow.
Adults often don’t listen to children. Adults pollute. Adults send children out to fight as soldiers. But there are also many adults who work hard for children’s rights. A courageous child has knowledge in the heart as well as in the head. Adults can gain knowledge in the heart from listening to children. While you visit C for Courage you can ask yourself what children’s rights mean in the community where you live. What can I do? What can I take responsibility for? What makes me happy? What makes me sad? Change starts with ourselves.
We hope you won’t miss this opportunity to visit C for Courage, and to learn more about Children’s rights. C for Courage is for everyone, but is especially developed for children between 8 and 12 years old. If you and your class want to visit C for Courage, please let us know!

 

 

《INDEPENDENT FRENCH FILM FESTIVAL》“ CULTURAL EXCEPTIONS ” Curator: Christophe Bruncher 7-11 May 2005

These French movies, shot on the margins of the classical production system, echo back to the earliest independent Chinese movies of the nineties. Fiction brushes against documentary, while narrative formats are reinvented and new styles are created. Most of the movies were self-financed and reveal, through their diversity,the originality of their authors. They are a testimony to the French concept of “cultural exception”, which has now been internationalized. To promote a better understanding of this notion, the screenings will be followed by an interactive discussion between French filmmakers and the Chinese public.

Selected Movies:
“Demi Tarif” by Isild Lebesco
“Real Movie” by Stéphane Robelin
“Doo Wop” by David Lanzmann
“En Attendant le Déluge” by Damien Odoul
“Altraa” by Benoit Delepine and Gustave Kervern

《Georges FeydeauFeu la Mère de Madame》(My Late Mother-in-Law) 26/ 27 Nov. 2004

Georges Feydau (1862-1921) was the most successful French dramatist of the Belle Epoque and is now widely regarded as one of the greatest of farce-writers. His series of dazzling hits match high-speed action and dialogue with ingenious plotting. Reaching the heights of farcical lunacy, his plays nevertheless contain touches of barbed social comment and allowed him to mention subjects which would have provoked outrage in the hands of more serious dramatists.
My Late Mother-in-Law (Feu la Mère de Madame) is a bedroom farce, noted for great wit and complex plots, featuring misunderstandings and coincidences, and what one critic called “jack-in-the-box construction”. This play were highly popular at the time, and is now seen as foreshadowing such modern developments as the theater of absurd.
Feydeau’s My Late Mother-in-Law is sure to showcase all of the theatre’s bells and whistles and take audience on a comedic thrill ride."
