Discussion with Patrick Barrès, Pascal Vimenet and Ralph Elawani on the work of Robert Breer
To celebrate the publication of the book Défier le film, le cinéma d'animation de Robert Breer, published by Somme toute, the Cinémathèque québécoise is welcoming two specialists of his work who will be paying tribute to the filmmaker who passed away in 2011. During a commented screening and a round table, Patrick Barrès, the author of the book, and Pascal Vimenet, who signed the preface, will highlight the singularity of Robert Breer's work, its place within the history of experimental animation and the variety of research avenues followed by the artist.
To pursue the reflection launched the day before during the screening of Robert Breer's films, Patrick Barrès and Pascal Vimenet discuss the artist's work and his place in the history of experimental animation, in the company of Ralph Elawani, editor and literary director of the éditions Somme toute.
