Our dream is to transform an old Parisian dance hall, just minutes from Place de Clichy, into a venue for the documentary image (photography, video and film). A place to present, compare and examine the many possible ways of addressing reality. A place to question the issues involved in documentary creation; issues that span aesthetics and politics. A place to debate the conditions in which documentary images are produced, published and seen. A place to think about what a “document” really is: part investigation, part experience, part recording and part creation. A place to explore new visual forms that can convey reality in all its complexity.” RAYMOND DEPARDON AND DIANE DUFOUR The opening of LE BAL is the 18th September, 2010. Opening weekend: 18th and 19th September, (10am – 8pm) 6 Impasse de la Défense, Paris, 18th arrondisement
Pied La Biche / Sans titre (Work in Progress) from Dédale Paris on Vimeo. Projet d’intervention dans l’espace public sur le territoire de la Cité Universitaire Internationale de Paris dans le cadre du programme SMART CITY. Pied la Biche choisit de s’intéresser à la station de RER B : Cité Universitaire. Une approche mixte entre documentaire, fiction, performance et vidéo scientifique s’ébauche. Refait from Pied La Biche on Vimeo. “Refait” is a remake of the football WorldCup match between France and Germany (Seville, Spain, 1982). Shot by Pied La Biche in Villeurbanne (France), every aspect of the fifteen last minutes of the match was carefully reconstructed : players, positions, gestures, intensity, drama etc. It consists in shifting the traditional game area into the urban environment. Each sequence takes place in one or several locations and then the city temporarily becomes the lab for unsual experiments. The soundtrack is made up of the original commentaries mixed with interviews of the audience recorded during the shooting. Pied la biche website
Souvenirs de démence from antoine capet on Vimeo.
Untitled (Hosts) 1996 Structure d’accueil pour deux chèvres Performance Les chèvres ont vécu trois mois dans la sculpture. L’artiste a organisé des visites de Los Angeles et des environs (Malibu, le parc national de Joshua Tree, différents quartiers de Los Angeles, etc.) pour les deux animaux. L’idée était d’accueilir un élément incontrôlable au sein d’une oeuvre d’art et le choix s’est porté sur les chèvres, animaux à psychologie singulière, qui cherchent toujours à surplomber leur environnement et à s’échapper.
