Carla Filipe
da cauda à cabeça
Conceived by Carla Filipe
and Gonçalo Sena
Texts by Stephan Dillemuth,
Vít Havránek, Pedro Lapa,
Pedro G. Romero
Edited by Nuno Ferreira
de Carvalho
Designed by Gonçalo Sena
Published in collaboration
with Museu Coleção Berardo
English / Portugese
Printed in 1000
Hardcover, 20,9 x 29,2 cm
252 pages, colours
ISBN 978-9898239389
Published on the occasion of Carla Filipe’s exhibition da cauda à cabeça (from tail to head), this monograph, the first ever dedicated to the artist,
focuses on the project presented at Museu Coleção Berardo, with an essay by the curator Pedro Lapa, and a comprehensive
documentation of the show. It also refers to a number of previous projects
carefully selected or especially created by Carla Filipe. Additional texts by Vít Havránek and Pedro G. Romero, and an interview with Stephan Dillemuth, contextualize
both the artist’s work and this project in particular, which summarises to some extent the
artist’s investigation into Portuguese railroads. The book was conceptualised by Carla
Filipe in close collaboration with Gonçalo Sena, who also designed it.
The work of Carla Filipe is one of the most significant projects to emerge in
Portugal towards the end of last decade. She undertakes an archaeology of the
lifestyles and the attendant questions raised during the course of modernity:
certain forms linked to expectations of a new world, one whose realisations
proved to be extremely diverse. Many of her works expose an autobiographic
vein; some deal with episodes in micro-narratives, others with history itself.
Constituting all of Carla Filipe’s works is a narrative structure whose mediums are, recurrently, objects,
drawing, words and installation.

The ongoing program “Der Standpunkt der Aufnahme — Point of View”, launched at the cinema Arsenal in Berlin in 2010, is dedicated to the diversity with which artists and activists work politically with film and video today. The book by the same title, edited by Tobias Hering, is a direct outcome of the program.
It aims to extend and perpetuate a debate whose urgency, while bearing on changing conditions and shifts in media agency, has never lost
momentum.
The contributions represent a variety of aesthetic and intellectual styles as well as different approaches to the questions at stake.
This book was published on the occasion of Clemens von Wedemeyer solo show
at MAXXI in Rome. A film exhibition that discusses memory, the mechanisms
of cinematographic fiction and the themes of contemporaneity. Props and extras referencing the giants of the Rome film industry; the relationship between statue and actor, but also between these two and the spectator’s gaze; the history of film and its hidden aspects; the political struggles of the cultural sector workers of yesterday and today; the Greek myth of rebirth after destruction — these are the themes of The Cast. The show is composed of three new works conceived for the museum ( Afterimage; The Beginning: Living Figures Dying and Procession) and an installation composed of diverse forms and sculptures (Remains: The Myth of Deucalion and Pyrrha). The title The Cast alludes to diverse meanings including the production of sculptures (the casting of forms), the process of selecting actors (casting) and the gesture of throwing (casting a stone). The exhibition is born out of the research conducted by von Wedemeyer over the last year spent in Rome and deals with a number of its symbolic, historic and contemporary sites such as the Cinecittà Studios and the Teatro Valle Occupato.
