Berlin: SFB, 1971. Two leaves for each film, in different sizes and stock, measuring 10 × 14.7 and 15 × 21.5 cm. respectively. Very good. Rare announcement cards for three artist films produced for Berlin television, directed by Berlin filmmaker Jan Franksen in close collaboration with the respective artists.The cards introduced "Böcklins Rückkehr" as a film "based on ideas by KH Hödicke," while "Tat-Bestände" is announced as a "film by KP Brehmer." The nearly hour-long Festum Fluxurum documents Fluxus actions at the René Block Gallery with dynamic camera movements and constant shifts in focal length. What unites all three films is not only their director, but also their production by Sender Freies Berlin and the close ties of the participating artists to the experimental Berlin gallery René Block. The gallery played a key role in bringing leading figures of Fluxus and Capitalist Realism from Düsseldorf and Cologne to the isolated cultural landscape of West Berlin. Jan Franksen, who is considered a pioneer of the "film essay" genre, supplied the West Berlin television station "sfb" with several shorter and longer documentary contributions on art actions and exhibitions between 1969 and 1971, which were then broadcast in the experimental sfb cultural program "Berliner Fenster" and even in the series "Künstler der jungen Generation" (Artists of the Young Generation), which was broadcast throughout West Germany. In addition to the three films relevant here, the approximately eight-minute contribution "Happening" from March 27, 1969, which documents Joseph Beuys' appearance at the Berlin Academy of Arts, should also be highlighted. (Cf. Christof Rosenthal, "Die Wirklichkeit des Films ist fiktiv": Der Berliner Filmessayist Jan Franksen, Baden-Baden 2018, p. 43f.) As of September 2025, KVK, OCLC list no copies worldwide.…
