Ruben Guzman

Biography
Awards
Film/videography
Distribution

Sharing Goethe's discontent with the spoken word, his experimental work has as many interpretations as a good book. The viewer must play an active role deciphering the contents.

His work spans from photography to media arts, from video and experimental film to peripheral documentaries. He has developed a personal view which explores the interstices between the different film genres and between light and shadow. His unconventional documentaries are condemning voices, because today it is impossible to remain silent.


Biography

Born in 1959 in the city of Buenos Aires (Argentinean Canadian). Media Arts curator, programmer, professor and independent film and video artist. His work has been screened in numerous solo and group exhibitions, retrospectives and festivals around the world.
