Who Maja Hoffmann revolutionizes the Locarno Film Festival soll

Today’s Sunday, the end of the 77th. Edition of the Locarno Film Festival, states: The new President has already left. Other obligations. Hoffentlich is the little Omen, by Locarno, Maja Hoffmann. After 23 years of research by Marco Solari and a program on the square, the zeitgeist of an uninteresting service is urgently an urgent problem. Anyway, it is not like Hoffmann’s first edition nor vague.

Someone other people who do this, compensate the idea for a large-scale project, the bedding of the own gestaltungskraft-hervorgehoben, complicated hats. Maja Hoffmann has not done this. The power is for the suspect, for the sympathetic others. The billions that Roche-Erbin and Mäzenin are, are so discreet, that their secret is visible. If you press the press, you may not exercise camaraderie in one of the best hotels in Ascona. If the Festivalgel erblickte man is for Zufall, statt omnipresent are his who in the Vorgänger Solari. The trees were a natural habitat, Hoffmann felt unwell here and above the Platz lieber schnell dejenigen, who one of (very) many Preise verloshen becom. Were the sponsors thinking?

If Hoffmann is filming on the square, then he can start the film start in Halbdunkel on the Platz. At Dinner with two handfuls of Loader Guests who are not in the sense come, with a speech aufzufallen. If you are not in the foreground, your family is like that.

That is familiar. If the president puts together the strategy and positioning of the festivals, he will also be such a reprästieren. Nadia Dresti, leader of the Festivals and Leiterin des Industry-Beirats, said in Schutz: “Maja Hoffmann is a little woman, who does the art of the Möglichkeit company, among the best ways to work and do her own work.”

They will understand before they gain power

Hoffmann, the abseits von Bühnen tens and unitel work, the power remains unchanged, the festival will last so long before it is separated. I have a conversation with that time that I know that it is a section that knows a section. And it is one of the first versions of this story: «Nächstes Jahr komme drei Tage früher nach Locarno. If that is so, it must not be so bad. Normally I am in the Ferien in August, we will enjoy intensely in Luma in Arles von Mai until July.» It is his foundation, of the Research Centers and a Kunsthaus, which was started by Frank Gehry, that frees itself for the Bevolkerung, not gefüllt with alten Meistern, by young Art.

“You need time now,” says Stefano Knuchel. There is an initiator of Basecamp, the program for young artists at the festival, and a slow connoisseur of these. “You don’t consider things too superficially. ‘I have to understand who does it’ is a statement, the man who is often short. Nobody knows who has the Festival of the Future. Nor does Maja Hoffmann. It is possible to work together. The festival is a complex whole, that is to say that people are aware of the coming two, three years brands.” Hoffmann himself said that he would not be able to offer any resistance.

The Piazza Grande is open. “After the art of film has begun, the discourse will take place, while he still obtains,” says Knuchel. «In the eighties war that Piazza is rebellious, you see cinephil.» What is the question? It is Locarnos Profil good. Fallen gibt and others Festivals schon enug. After the überraschenden Rücktritt der kunsten Leiterin Lili Hinstin 2020 geriet das Festival ins Schlingern. After a visit to Giona A. Nazzaro likes to see a film, which often goes to the «nischige» Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival. Hollywood stars find their choice in Locarno, while the war of fans is increased by the Indian superstars Shah Rukh Khan who is experiencing the sensation of the year.

Hoffmann who grew up, on the emerging, was Locarno ist, aber das Festival weiterzubringen, sprich, “new international partner hereanzuziehen, a badger, was with the national partner erreicht haben, zu stärken”, who es der Geschäftsführer Raphaël Brunschwig dropped out. Clear text: Man must wait. Don’t say Filme anymore?

Door opener for lenders

When the new Geldgeer reaches a level again, it stops cooking. Internationally relevant and competitive is teuer. More Gelder can not visit the Festival – since the Directorate for Entwicklung and Business Administration (Deza) has received a 25 Prozent award in the Beitrag zur Section «Open Doors» -, also with private Geldgeber here. Von Solchen stamen heute 36 Prozent des Budgets von 18 Millionen Francs, Tendenz increasing. The new president is a Türöffnerin. Thanks to the contacts Locarno has had with the Bloomberg Philanthropies, private Geldgeber from New York is the man who now spends his entire life.

In content, the question that looms large when a Maze and art collector presides over the film festival is: Will this open itself above other art forms? “The end of life and the überall in der Luft,” said Hoffmann. “It is a fact that the boundaries of culture are one of the most important components of culture.” It is not photography, painting, film that matters. “I have the idea that I am thinking about a material, that I define art in such a way that everything hangs in other words.” At Luma in Arles, art is made as a “living organism” reason. Locarno is at the film festival, but it is a light voorstelbar, which is distributed by others on the provincial city a cultural meeting point for an international world will be sold.

The Locarner Filmemacherin Laura Kaehr, the Hoffmann in Cannes knows, is one of the first people, weil sie so fell über Kunst wise and with frischem Look at the other Institution Locarno Film Festival look: «Hoffmann will make the Ort revolutionary, and es ist mir lieber, this is a woman who brings a woman change and not a man.” This is the first time that the Festival Changes are urgently needed.

Hoffmann’s revolutions and “positive provocations” have taken place, who has Brunschwig become at the city and the canton? “It is a test for an unknown region,” says Stefano Knuchel. “After 23 years with Marco Solari, he became a different person. It may happen that Locarno becomes an international festival, but there is a good chance that the locals can rejoice.” There is no specific Ticino problem. In Switzerland, it is a treatise and a new idea in general. “If it is good, it is good that Basecamp has a talented talent. These were formed as a youthful war, the great power, and never again as our son.

Maja Hoffmann still worked as a friend of Tessin. “It is powerful, may be a bit of a problem”, thinks Knuchel. We want to know if we are so discreet, that we can handle our scepticism or lehnen. If you want to give your opinion about your idea: People understand new then, when they recognise advantages in it. Were Hoffmanns Ideen zu gross sein? The greater part of the year, the Milliardärin in Locarno, can be a small spirit.
