PHOTOGRAPHIE ET LE CINEMA (FM2045)

Home>Academic Catalog 2020-2021>Course Catalog>
This course will explore the bridges between photographic imagery and cinematographic imagery. This course will focus on contemporary artists (Cindy Sherman, Nana Goldin,Jeff Wall, Gregory Crewdson, etc.) whose hybrid works reconstruct the real and dissolve identity. We will also focus on how the cinematographic eye converges with and complements the photographic eye (Larry Clark, William Klein, Raymond Depardon etc). Conducted in French, this course combines critical analysis of photos and films but it also integrates some practice(production of films and photographs).
