Exhibition Film Series

Nouvell Vage-French New Wave CinemaNOUVELLE VAGUE - FRENCH NEW WAVE

The origins and early history of both photography (Daguerre) and cinema
(Lumiere Bothers) are traceable back to Paris. The city has figured prominently in the history of both these arts and has exerted an especially deep influence on the development of contemporary cinema; both in form and content. The
French New Wave cinema movement of the early 1960's revolutionized film, film theory and the style of contemporary movies. Presented in conjunction with the A Tale of Two Cities exhibition.

Varda opens up a fantastic world in microcosm; a picture of a city and a way of life that no longer exist.
