| Sumario: | Le temps spirale: "Nu descendant l'escalier" (1913) Philadelphia Museum of Art Marcel Duchamp's "Nude Descending a Staircase" (1913), is, with Picasso's "Demoiselles d'Avignon" an essential step in the twentieth century artistic revolution. But inspite of its worldwide reputation, the painting has never been commented in-depth. This 24th documentary in the Palettes series is thus the first film completely dedicated to Duchamp's masterpiece. If we put aside the title, what exactly does the painting represent? To what extent is it possible to analyse the work and dissect its symbolism? Traces de l'époque bleue: "Anthropométrie de l'époque bleue" (1960) Musée national d'art moderne, Centre Georges-Pompidou, Paris The blue period, blue traces, blue sponges... Yves Klein certainly deserved his nickname of "Yves the monochrome." Eventhough he used other colors, blue was his favorite, and, more than a means of expression, blue became a source of spiritual energy. This programme in the Palette series explores his universe, the use of the blue color, the use of differing and original techniques (Klein used, for example, his models as actual "living" brushes!). The "Anthropométries" are a meditation on the imprint, the trace left, the disappearance and different variations on the theme of incarnation "Ten Lizes", Andy Warhol, 1963 (Pompidou Centre (National Museum of Modern Art), Paris) Why are we so fascinated by Warhol's images? This new unreleased programme in the series "Palettes" analyses a huge picture with a secret history and surprising implications. Ten identical faces printed in black, in two rows, on a canvas 5.65 metres long and 2 metres high. But are the faces really identical? Not quite: the observer gradually notices a myriad small differences, like the variations you get in replicas cast from the same mould. The same observer recognises the face as that of a famous actress, Elizabeth Taylor, the "Liz" of the title. Andy Warhol (Pittsburgh, 1928-New York, 1987) created this image in 1963 from a photo of the star and repeated it ten times using silk-screen printing techniques. Why did he choose this face? Why did he repeat it? Warhol offers few clues. "I never wanted to be a painter," he said. "I wanted to be a tap-dancer." He became a painter by chance, and he seems to choose his motifs at random. Working in New York in the Sixties, at the epicentre of the Pop Art movement, might he be a sort of negative image of the consumer society? Even though an image of this kind seems to break with the traditional art of portraiture, it is as much in need of decoding as pictures from an earlier age |
