Festival Panoràmic

"Cremo de desig" was not just an intimate confession, but a declaration of the future: the desire to catch the light and capture the shadow, to fix time, to give body to the instant, to satisfy curiosity, to celebrate the gaze and make its memory live on. From that initial spark, photography was born, and with it, a new way of looking, thinking, and inhabiting the world. In this bicentenary of photography, beyond celebrating an invention, the Panoràmic festival aims to honor the radical transformation of modern sensibility. We commemorate the achievement of a humble heliography that Niépce captured from his home window on 1826; the oldest photograph that is preserved. Since that view was imprinted on a light-sensitive surface, humanity has learned to examine itself with a formidable tool to build narrative, identity, memory, truth, or fantasy. Panoràmic is the Visual Arts and Cultures festival that explores the relationship between cinema, photography, and new forms of images, and promotes and encourages the search for new audiovisual languages and narratives. The festival proposes a space for knowledge and reflection between the fixed image and the moving image. And it does so by deploying all the areas where the image makes itself present, that is, through feature film and short film projections, video, video installations, video games, mappings, exhibitions, workshops, conferences, workshops, TV, installations, archives, bibliography, photobooks, or interactive projects, among others.
