Krzsztof Wodiczko projections

A riveting film portrait of an artist, a Polish refugee with a Canadian passport, living in New York, has taken his art out of museums and projected it with the aid of giant slides on the sides of buildings. In this examination of the artist's philosophy of art as social contract, we see examples of his provocative work, which have been lighting up walls from London's Trafalgar Square to Zion Square in Jerusalem.

  • "Présentation de l'oeuvre singulière et inclassable de l'artiste canadien d'origine polonaise Krzysztof Wodiczko qui, artiste public nomade, refuse d'être confiné entre les murs d'une galerie d'art traditionnelle. Wodiczko projette ses images photographiques démesurées sur les monuments et les façades du monde entier. Des images indignées qui dérangent, sur des thèmes d'antiracisme, de désarmement nucléaire, des sans abris, etc. Observation de ses oeuvres instantanées réalisées à Washington, Berne, Jérusalem, Brooklyn, Boston, Kassel, Edinbourg, Montréal, Toronto, etc. où on suit l'artiste dans ses pérégrinations alors qu'il explique et fait voir sa démarche créative. Les oeuvres montrées furent réalisées entre 1985 et 1991."
