Jean-Luc Godard INFRASTRUCTURE(S) GRAND(S) ENSEMBLE(S) DÉ/MONTAGE(S). A study of Opération „Béton“, Deux ou trois choses que je sais d’elle, and Le Livre d‘image
This study of Jean-Luc Godard (1930-2022) combines an interest in the history of the built environment (in french décor) with that of cinematic décors. The interrelations between décor, film characters and, in the case of cinematic installations, beholders are examined in the respective work and through historical contextualisation of the film and construction projects. The three chapters focus on Godard's debut film Opération ‘Béton’ (CH 1955), Deux ou trois choses que je sais d'elle (FR 1967), which marks the transition to his political phase, and his late work Le Livre d'image (CH/FR 2018-), which unfolds as installations in space.
