Eppur Si Muove: Armando Arce, la aventura del movimiento

Overview

Armando Arce (b. 1948) has led a restless and multifaceted life as a painter, sculptor, filmmaker, diplomat, and teacher. Deeply committed to the cultural development of his country, he has devoted much of his career to education and to the growth of Venezuelan cinema. His path into filmmaking began during the political ferment of the 1970s, when Super-8 cameras became accessible tools for popular expression in working-class neighborhoods. Today he faces two of his most ambitious projects: the creation of the Museum of Cinema and Audiovisual Art (MUCAAC) in Mérida and the National Center for Animation Cinema in Caracas.
