White letters on a black background form the enigmatic erotically tinged title: CUL EN L'AIR.1 Cut to the first and only shot of this three and a half minute video. We are positioned on the ground looking between the legs of a white man lying on his back wearing little more than sneakers and a white jockstrap. His right foot is briefly on view in the left fore-ground of the image. As it moves out of frame, the body repositions itself slightly so that a part of the man's shaven head is visible in the left background. He is apparently wearing a blue sweatshirt but, clued in by the title and the unusual and unchanging camera position, we know that it is his lower body.specifically his "cul " which will be our main object of attention.The man's hand reaches down the back of his right th…

San Francisco Cinematheque presents “We Cannot Exhibit It: The Videos of Pierre Yves Clouin"
description: San Francisco Cinematheque presents “We Cannot Exhibit It: The Videos of Pierre Yves Clouin,"curated by Maïa Cybelle Carpenter, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco, California, USA Presented in Association with Frameline From bursts of perspective trickery to homoerotic celebrations of the male body and philosophical musings on public versus private, the award-winning videos of Pierre-Yves Clouin never cease to delight. His witty examinations of the quotidian elements of life bring transcendental revelations combined with laughter. "Alone in front of the camera, and without a word, I spy on myself in the monitor during the action. I am double: seer and seen. As if freedom from surveillance meant inventing, within surveillance itself, an illusion that subverts the watching eye." (P-YC)) We'll screen My Levitating Butt and I've Got Mouths All Over, as well as the more recent Thé au Riz (RiceTea/ Theory), Flying Sculpture, Strong Enough, and US premieres of new work. (Maïa Cybelle Carpenter) The first time I saw Pierre Yves Clouin's video work was in 1997 when I was the programming coordinator for MIXNYC: The New York Experimental Lesbian and Gay Film Festival. I was immediately seduced by his work because of how he used the specificity of the video medium: it's intimacy and framing that lends itself so well to voyeurism. He also displayed a playful sensitivity in his depiction of masculinity. But most of all, I was impressed by the strong brevity of his statements. When someone can convey a multitude of ideas that some people use the feature length format for, in a 2-minute long video - that's pretty amazing. Sitting in the dark and watching Cul en l'air and The Final Touch I had a moment with myself. The type of moment where my thoughts were provoked by the representation of his body, the identification I had as a spectator with this intimate moment and then the surprise by how I was pleasantly manipulated to believe I was seeing one thing, when I was in f…
