- Fridericianum
On the occasion of Catherine Opie’s exhibition The Pause That Dreams Against Erasure, Fridericianum presents Chris Marker’s legendary photo-film La Jetée (1962). A groundbreaking work of experimental cinema, the film tells a story of time travel and memory through a sequence of black-and-white photographs, set in a world after the Third World War. Its formal and narrative structures inspired Opies own photo-film The Modernist (2017), which develops a dystopian reflection on the collapse of the promises of modernism.
