Description

A visual tribute to Agnès Varda's three lives as a photographer, filmmaker and artist is presented in this book. Featuring previously unseen archival materials, texts and personal reflections from notable figures, it explores the life and work of French filmmaker Agnès Varda. Varda was a trailblazer who broke new artistic and cinematic ground for nearly seven decades. Her groundbreaking visual style began with her 1955 debut film La Pointe Courte, predating other milestones in the French New Wave movement. The book delves into Varda's expansive oeuvre, including films such as Cleo from 5 to 7 (1962) and Faces Places (2017), which earned an Academy Award nomination. This publication offers a unique insight into Varda's inspirations, art and personal life, with contributions from author Sasha Archibald, film critic Peter Debruge, and friends and colleagues who share their experiences of collaborating with the filmmaker.
