ECAL Cinema Department welcomes Argentine filmmaker and artist Jazmín López for a lecture as part of her ECAL residency at La Becque.
Born in 1984 and living between New York and Buenos Aires, Jazmín López is a filmmaker and visual artist who resists labels. A multidisciplinary artist, her visual approach departs from classical narratives. By playing with cinematic devices, she moves beyond reality to explore sensation and emotion. Through a formal approach combining objects, places and temporality, she examines the history of political struggles.
Recognized on the international stage, she has exhibited at institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), the KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin, the Fondation Pernod Ricard, the San Jose Museum of Art and Art Basel. Presented at the Venice Film Festival and the International Film Festival Rotterdam, her first feature film Leones (2012) explores the transition to adulthood. The Origin of the World (2025), her latest short film, was also selected in Venice this year.
Jazmín López is an ECAL resident at La Becque during the autumn semester of 2025.
Discussion moderated by Jasmin Basic, Co-head of the ECAL–HEAD Master Cinema.
