Description:Agnès Varda is having her moment. At the age of 89, she received an Academy Award nomination this year for Faces Places, the documentary she co-directed with photographer JR. She was selected to participate in the prestigious Norton Lectures at Harvard University. And she is the subject of a new book, CineVardaUtopia, published by Reverse Shot and Museum of the Moving Image:"As with so many publications, at Reverse Shot, we’ve long prided ourselves on spotlighting the most exciting filmmakers in the prime of their careers. Sometimes, though, the freshest—the most provocative, stimulating, and unpredictable—filmmaker has been around for quite a while. In selecting the subject of our latest director symposium, we alighted upon a figure of constant surprise, of reinvention, of charm and oddity and intellectual freedom. She is one of the most thrillingly alive filmmakers working today—and she’s 88.Agnès Varda’s every film, long or short, fiction or non, takes us by surprise. She greatly influenced the style and ethos of the French New Wave, and is today arguably its most vibrant remaining figure. She was making documentary-fiction hybrid films before there was ever such a category. She makes films of emotional resonance and personal exploration, often about society’s outcast and marginalized, imbued with an aesthetic rigor. She has long been a photographer and crafter of installations as well as a filmmaker, her art displayed in museums and galleries around the world. Her works reflect the times in which they were made, in terms of filmmaking and of politics, without ever seeming overtly trendy. Varda's films are intellectually daunting and completely accessible at once."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
