Agnes Varda Unlimited by Marie-Claire Barnet

In her ever-evolving career, the legendary filmmaker AgnEs Varda has gone from being a photographer at the Avignon festival in the late 1940s, through being a director celebrated at the Cannes festival (ClEo de 5 A 7, 1962), to her more ironic self-proclaimed status as a 'jeune artiste plasticienne'. She has recently staged mixed-media projects and exhibitions all over the world from Paris (2006) to Los Angeles (2013-14) and the latest 'tour de France' with JR (2015-16). AgnEs Varda Unlimited: Image, Music, Media reconsiders the legacy and potential of Varda's radical tour de force cinEmatique, as seen in the 22-DVD 'definitive' Tout(e) Varda, and her enduring artistic presence. These essays discuss not just when, but also how and why, Varda's renewed artistic forms have ignited with such creative force, and have been so inspiring an influence. The volume concludes with two remarkable interviews: one with Varda herself, and another rare contribution from the leading actress of ClEo de 5 A 7, Corinne Marchand.
