The central idea that informs and directs the booklets’ montage is the interplay between the concepts of addition and subtraction. This is achieved by unveiling a missing image in the screening or an unreleased second from an artist's film, expanded to 24 pages. Additionally, each booklet contains a piece directly removed from the show.

The editing establishes a dialogue between film frames and performed writings derived from texts, scripts, storyboards, and notes. The KAMERA exhibition is consequently extended into a physical space—the book—allowing for its widespread dissemination, complementing and contrasting with its potential online occurrence.

KAMERA SERIES is a screening program of experimental films, video art works and printed matter taking place in a former GDR building in Berlin.

Each event showcases a retrospective of selected films by an artist and a small exhibition of his/her publications or works on paper over a span of 4 days.

KAMERA centers on fostering a critical dialogue between different film formats and artists’ books. Through its regular occurrence, it aspires to create a space for community exchanges about contemporary image-making.

KAMERA is a series conceived and curated by Labor Neunzehn and AVARIE.

Originally from the former Yugoslavia, SERGEJ VUTUC has been engaged in the punk and skateboarding community since the mid 90's, driven towards DIY ethics and alternative cultures. His work begins by documenting the (over)development of modern society and the privatization of public space and leads into the exploration of image, through photography and photocopy, motion and sound, human happenings such as performances, art book events and exhibitions, or book productions. The machine is a tool rather than a technique: photocopiers become musical instruments, noise emerges as a publication or encounters the visual in super 8 and 16mm films.
Vutuc lives in Paris where his most recent enterprise consists in encouraging print and physical productions under the name A La Maison Printing.
