Agnès Varda 'Patates & compagnie' al Musée d'Ixelles

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.

For the first time in Belgium, the Museum of Ixelles presents an exhibition of innovative and perceptive works by Agnès Varda, a photographer, film maker, video and visual artist born in Ixelles. The exhibition reveals the latest artistic developments of Agnès Varda (installations, photographs and videos). As a humanist and social commentator, Varda’s rich and passionate work is universal.

The Patates & compagnie exhibition invites you to dive into the imaginative and sensitive universe of the artist Agnès Varda, winner of the Honorary Prize at Cannes Film Festival in 2015 for her films. In the place of her childhood, the exhibition offers, for the first time in Belgium, an unconventional visual journey through installations, photographs and videos. Her prolific work mixes with humour childhood memories and recent creations that meet halfway between fantasy and reality.

The proximity of still and motion pictures, images of the earth, wind and beaches, allow visitors to glide between one and the other and to by chance come across signposts and potatoes, as they stroll through the flat country of my childhood and the trails of my imagination.
