Serge Toubiana followed Isabelle Huppert and her lifestyle for one year. With her, we reflect on the “album” of her life. The images flow: films of her childhood, the important moments in her career, interspersed with interviews, impressing rehearsals, scenes from films, and ordinary walks, in the center of a crowd that does not recognize her. We are given an insider’s view of a remarkable actress, a discreet woman, who, in this portrait, gives us a glimpse at her emotions, her vocation, and her life.
He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
The exhibition “Look At Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection” examined portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shaped a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits.
When we examine the Ottoman-themed paintings of indoor everyday life by western painters, musical entertainment attracts attention as a fundamental aspect of the lifestyle.
