Notas filosóficas sobre o filme “Visages Villages”
Abstract
The documentary Visages Villages of Agnès Varda and J.R. shows a aesthetic-political way full of meanings. We have followed their steps throughout villages in France, passing by their meetings, shots, gluings and talks. During each step we invite some precious thinkers; they enlight aspects of the movie that might remain unseen in a first exibition. We ask: the artistic interventions, photographic, made during the movie, have a utopic character? How the work is portraied? How the mixture between art and politics is done? Ages and genders are equally valued in our society? How a trip and a photo can revel affective memories? Can the art perdure, being also ephemeral? The answer to these questions, and other more that appeared to us, has to be offered by each spectator motivated by the aesthetic proposal: a movie about people: their photos, faces, and villages.
