Sumario:Some of the most interesting films in Spanish cinema in recent years have had their origins at the intersection between the spaces of the movie theatre and the museum — two territories that are being transformed. As a cultural institution, the museum is not only a place for audiovisual exhibition but also for film production, a relational space with the potential to participate actively in the development of new cinematic styles. In the twenty-first century, the cinema has kept its central role in image creation, although it may now be fulfilling that role by spreading out to other screens. At the same time, the range of its forms is opening up more and more, largely due to the evolution of the technology, and to the debate over new forms of viewer consumption. This dual mutation explains some of the shifts occurring in the work of some of Spain’s most original filmmakers who have taken an interest in this creative intersection: Pere Portabella, Víctor Erice, José Luís Guerin, Albert Serra, and Isaki Lacuesta.
