Ange Leccia's Return to Experimental Cinema at Almine Rech

Ange Leccia's showcase at Galerie Almine Rech in Paris, running from June 25 to July 24, 2010, revisits his early 1980s investigation into the essence of cinema, inspired by his experiences filming in Cambodia and the Louvre. The exhibition presents six minimalist white parallelepipeds equipped with Super8 projectors that operate without film, projecting light and sound. This installation recalls his 1985 work 'Séance' at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, creating a dynamic visual experience that merges light with the silhouettes of attendees. Additionally, four photographs of record sleeves from his initial cinematic endeavors are included, showcasing soundtracks from Georges Lautner's 'Galia' and Pink Floyd's 'Atom Heart Mother' and 'More'. The exhibit concludes with a photograph of abstract film frames, highlighting the nature of the film process.
