Cézanne

Live from Aix-en-Provence comes a lovely new film from Luke Fowler. He explores the flora, quality of light, and of course Mt. Saint-Victoire, all as Cézanne found them over 125 years ago. But around those elements has sprouted a commercialized Cézanne industry – tours, posters, cafés, and enough postcards to fill Bibémus Quarry. Fowler explores this conundrum cinematically, using gesture and superimposition to generate a play between flatness and depth. What could be more fitting? (Michael Sicinski)
