CLAIRE DENIS
26 July – 30 August 2013 | Australian Cinémathèque | Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane
Free Admission
A retrospective of one of France’s most celebrated directors whose best-known films include Chocolat 1988, Beau Travail 1999 and White Material 2009.
Highly acclaimed film director Claire Denis is regarded as one of France’s most distinctive and humanist filmmakers. Denis spent her formative years living in French colonial Africa in various locations across what is today Burkina Faso, Senegal, Djibouti and Cameroon. Her films approach subjects of cultural and political tension, as well as individual alienation. They are united by a sensuous approach to characters and story development. In her early career she worked alongside filmmakers that included Costa Gavras, Jacques Rivette, Jim Jarmusch and Wim Wenders. The Gallery’s Australian Cinémathèque will present an in-depth retrospective, including Claire Denis’ documentaries and short films. This will constitute the most comprehensive exploration of her work to date in Australia.
