As you know, EL MAC was in our factory in Barcelona, doing a mural. Here's the video of the process which the directors of Popcranc did, with the support of Offf Festival and Montana Colors.

In the words of the directors themselves: "From the very start, when we had the opportunity to speak with Mac and find out more about his work, we decided to center the video idea, not on the mural process, but on the style and inspiration of the author. The suggestive image of the girl which he painted really reminded us of Andy Warhol's screen tests, and the simple details characteristic of Jean-Luc Godard's Anna Karina. So we threw ourselves into the project, playing with that inspiration. The main thing was to use the dramatic combination of black and white, just as Mac did with his piece. We had a great time during the whole process with Mac, Ari, and Kim, and hope that they'll come back to Barcelona soon. Many thanks to Montana for the opportunity!"

Como sabéis EL MAC estuvo en nuestra fábrica de Barcelona realizando un mural. Aquí tenéis la pieza de video con el proceso que los realizadores Popcranc han realizado gracias al soporte de Offf Festival y Montana Colors.

En palabras de los propios realizadores: "Desde el inicio, cuando tuvimos la oportunidad de charlar con Mac y conocer más sobre su trabajo, decidimos centrar la idea del video, no tanto en el proceso del mural, si no más en el estilo e inspiraciones del autor. Esa imagen sugerente de la chica que pintó nos recordó mucho a los Screen Test de Andy Warhol y esos planos detalle tan característicos de Jean-Luc Godard sobre Anna Karina, así que nos lanzamos a jugar con esa inspiración. Lo primero y más coherente fué el uso del blanco y negro extremo, al igual que había hecho Mac con su obra. Durante todo el proceso lo pasamos muy bien, compartimos grandes momentos con Mac, Ari y Kim y deseamos que vuelvan pronto a Barcelona. Muchísimas gracias a Montana por la oportunidad!"
