TRACES, AMOS GITAÏ – PALAIS DE TOKYO

 

2011

ARTER produced Traces by Amos Gitaï at the Palais de Tokyo

Exploring the questions of identity and exile, from memory and history, the films of Amos Gitä illicit a reflection about the past and the present, the necessity of transmission, and the role of art.

The filmmaker pursues this line of questioning by proposing, at the Palais de Tokyo, a vast video and sound installation designed as an intimate and emotional experience within a collective history. Occupying the gutted basement of the Palais, he has created an exceptionally dense visual and sound tour through images extracted from his films.
