Luis Bezeta

Having pursued studies at the Institute of Audiovisual Sciences in Berlin, at the Film and Audiovisual School of Catalonia (ESCAC) and in the field of Direction and Production in Film-Video-TV at Barcelona’s IDEP, Luis Bezeta has managed to establish a sustained and meaningful questioning of key issues in the creation of video with projects that, through a very personal style, which is close to his everyday reality, and the performance conditions he generates, propose revising and challenging great film structures and assumptions. For Bezeta, the appropriation of this grand narrative is necessary to open his own and autonomous space and thereby establish a relational basis with a language which, on account of its material, structural and historic complexity, may come to alienate us. Among other distinctions, the work of Luis Bezeta has garnered the Miquel Casablancas Prize, Barcelona; the Madatac / Metrópolis prize for video creation, La2 (TVE); the 49º Grand Prize at the Salon Européen des Jeunes Créateurs, Paris; and the first video-art and performance award in Arte Laguna, Venice.
