His work has been with us since the third edition of the Festival in 1996, when a retrospective of his films was held, accompanied by an exhibition of his art entitled \u201cTouch, Arcimboldo, Vanitas\u201d. In the years that followed, we have regularly revisited the Czech artist\u2019s work, showing each of his subsequent feature-length films: \u201cConspirators of pleasure\u201d, \u201cLittle Otik\u201d, \u201cLunacy\u201d, and \u201cSurviving Life\u201d. Furthermore, in 2010, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of ASIFA (the International Animated Film Association), the Festival held a special poll of best animated shorts created since the establishment of the Association, as selected by 25 experts from 18 countries. Among the 852 submitted films, \u0160vankmajer\u2019s animation \u201cDimensions of Dialogue\u201d (1982) was the winner.<\/p>\n<p>The Czech surrealist\u2019s work has therefore been with us for virtually the whole quarter of a century. That is why, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Festival, we present this great subverter of cinema and art (animation in particular) with the statuette of a Special Golden Jaberwocky \u2013 an award whose name echoes both Lewis Carroll\u2019s fantastic creature and the title of one of the most well-known films by the Czech master. The award ceremony will be accompanied by the screening of 10 shorts by \u0160vankmajer, as selected by Bogus\u0142aw Zmudzi\u0144ski, the Artistic Director of the Festiwal, as well as by the presentation of the artist\u2019s latest feature-length film \u201cInsects\u201d. Additionally, an exhibition \u201cDimensions of Dialogue. Between Film and Fine Arts\u201d, organized on the occasion of the publication of the artist\u2019s monograph of the same title (published in Prague and edited by Bertrand Schmitt and Franti\u0161ek Dryje), will be held at Ma\u0142opolski Ogr\u00f3d Sztuki (MOS).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jan \u0160vankmajer needs no introduction among the audience of Etiuda&amp;Anima.
