Moving Silence

Following the great success of Moving Silence in Cyprus in 2011, 2012 and 2013 at ARTos Foundation, Moving Silence takes place for the fourth consecutive year in collaboration with the Goethe Institut Cyprus. On Friday 12 and Saturday 13 December 2014 at 20:30 at ARTos Foundation, musicians and composers will meet to perform live soundtracks for video and film works without sound by contemporary creators of their choice. The audience will have a unique experience where the musicians-composers perform live their music while the films/videos that have inspired them are simultaneously screened.

What is Moving Silence?
Moving Silence was originally founded in the summer of 2009 by the musician Marco Brosolo, filmmaker Matthias Fritsch and producer Federico Bassetti with the aim to create events that connect the roots of cinematography with the present aesthetics of image, the live music production and the potential of new technology. It constitutes a poetic, intercultural and collaborative attempt in times of information overload. It embraces experimentation and merging between contemporary forms of visual and sound inviting artists from different parts of the world to join in. Moving Silence events have taken place in different cities around Europe.

Participating musicians and composers: Matthias Fritsch (DE), Johanna Borchert (DE), Achilleas Kentonis (CY), Tomash Ghzegovsky, Andreas Moustoukis (CY), Stelios Frangos (CY), Aphroditi Nicolaou (CY), Marianna Suri (CY), Nefeli Kentoni (CY).
