Four Books, Godard and an Installation
Keywords:
Artist Book, installation essay, montage, GodardAbstract
This text arises from the reflection on «The books of Godard. The artist's book as an essay» —thesis for Bachelor's Degree in Plastic Arts—, which was part of the exhibition «Fresh Ink» at the University Center of Art of La Plata, in August 2019. It consisted of four artist books that, from the film Historie(s) du cinéma (1988-1998), by Jean-Luc Godard (1930), stressed the languages activating possible dialogues between the plastic arts and the cinema.References
