ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG (1925 - 2008)

We were sad to hear of the death of the artist Robert Raushenberg, who died on Tuesday May 13th at his home on Captiva Island in Florida. A great artist, and as the New York Times described him "a painter, photographer, printmaker, choreographer, onstage performer, set designer and, in later years, even a composer, Mr. Rauschenberg defied the traditional idea that an artist stick to one medium or style. He pushed, prodded and sometimes reconceived all the mediums in which he worked"

61 st FESTIVAL DE CANNES, MAY 14 - 25, 2008

The 61st Festival de Cannes [until May 25]

The opening day at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival saw the Festival Jury led by actor and director Sean Penn being introduced to the world's cinema press.

There is a definite buzz about this year's Festival. The trade papers appear pessimistic about the level of film sales that may be achieved, citing the disappointment of this year's Sundance Film Festival but overall the pace at Cannes has quickened throughout the day as more and more industry professionals arrive on the Croisette. The level of interest in FILMCOMMUNITY.COM around the pavilions is running high.
