PARCELLE DE CIEL
of CAHEN Robert
FRANCE, 1987, 00:18:00
Production : ARCANAL, INA, INTERMEDIA, LA SEPT, MAISON DE LA CULTURE DE LA ROCHELLE
Genre : Video dance, Video art
Keyword : Show, Dance
Summary :
Dancers’ movements are traced out in space, where they hang suspended. The video makes use of audio feedback to bring about a double reading of movement that enables the viewer to better remember the incredible ballet of the human body. Freeze frames highlight the movement, recalling certain paintings by Francis Bacon – the weary human body manages to find its way to the universe of dance.
