animateCologne 2018
5th art & animation festival

In June 2018, Wilfried launched the 5th edition of animateCologne, Cologne Art & Animation Festival. Since Wilfried was curating art and moving images, animated contents was playing a more and more relevant role. Wilfried was not interested in conventional, classical or commercial animation films, but in art works using artistically animated contents, to give animation in art more attention and encourage artists to include animation in the artistc works and concepts.

According to Wilfried, animation respectively the combination of animated and non-animated contents has a huge potential, because it allowes to create complex expressions on different levels of perception. That his own ideas have potential demonstrate not only his curated screening programs, but even more the new festival format animateCologne and its first edition 2012 as a new forum experimenting with animated contents, and the interest of partner festivals in presenting expressively Wilfried’s curatorial compositions focussing on art and animated images as a counter concept to the perfect digital commercial animations produced by the famous film studios.
