Jolie chanson

Vincent Guilbert

Jean-Louis Costes

Fragments from a portrait of Jean-Louis Costes - sincere artist, versatile designer, poet of excess -, a man forever atoning his anguish through singing, performance, drawing and writing...

Botan no sasayaki

Vincent Guilbert

Akira Naka, Yu Kawakami

Details from a portrait of Kinbakushi Akira Naka, through the otherness of image and speech; broken up memory, fragmented time, reminiscences of places, moments, faces and bodies, during a back-and-forth between the recollections of a child and the aspirations of a man in his fifties...

Ch’l’eintailleu

Vincent Guilbert

Jean-Pierre Facquier

Prelude to a portrait of Jean-Pierre Facquier, ch’l’eintailleu (wood carver) in the Saint-Leu district of Amiens: a free mind self-removed from social determinism, who gives new life to wood through constant dialogue, both with nature and his alter ego, the puppet Lafleur..

Kyôbô na made no chinmoku

Vincent Guilbert

April's shadows

Vincent Guilbert

Michel Henritzi, Tetuzi Akiyama

Fragments of a journey, fragments of time, fragments of memories, places, ephemeral moments, images and sounds, faces, useless details… A descent into the depths of Tokyo’s night, the abstraction of its noises, dancing with its shadows.

Gestures

Vincent Guilbert

Loren Connors

Sightings of Brooklyn-based artist Loren Connors. To graze against the pulsations of time, to feel matter, to linger on the imperceptible frailty of gesture...

Kanojo no Ōkoku ni Tsuite

Vincent Guilbert

Examining both body- and mirror image, Vincent Guilbert’s Super8 work Of Her Kingdom is a meditative filmic puzzle about memories, fleeting moments and contradictions, in which a solitary woman is seen listening to an LP, drying her hair and applying eyeliner while her actions are narrated with existential Zen-like mantras.

Iete wa naranai hazu

Vincent Guilbert

Akari Saito

An attempted interpretation in Super 8 of a 19th century woodblock print book, printed by Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, from his series "One Hundred Aspects of the Moon" (1885-1892)
