The National Institute of Art History

Paris, October 14-15-16, 2019

The Eisenstein International Network was founded in November 2018. The EIN aims to create a dynamic, international community of scholars, students, filmmakers, artists and further non-academic Eisenstein enthusiasts sharing information, archival materials, translations, teaching materials, creative responses to, and studies of all topics connected to Eisenstein — a spherical book. The EIN annual conference provides a forum to share our research about Eisenstein and all Eisenstein-related topics.

The EIN First Annual Conference, in coordination with the exhibition at Pompidou Centre-Metz “The Ecstatic Eye: Sergei Eisenstein at the Crossroads of the Arts” curated by Ada Ackerman, is aimed at mapping new aspects of current Eisenstein studies: films, texts, drawings; archives, publications, translations; comparisons and intersections with other filmmakers, writers, artists, thinkers, psychologists, scientists; actors, actresses, acting, cinematographers, cinematography, editors, editing; institutions and movements.
