Scene missing, photomontage by Mark Rappaport
After making shorts and feature films since
the 1970's such as The Scenic Route (1978)
and From the Journals of Jean Seberg (1992), nowadays
Rappaport devotes himself also to creating photomontages, some of
which will be presented at The Film Gallery for six weeks.
Stage fright with top hats, by Mark Rappaport
Mark Rappaport's photomontages tell much about
his interests and his love for cinema. They are collages made out of
his favorite movies and stars but not just that. This work has been
shown in New York, Las Palmas (Spain), Nantes and Rotterdam. This is a
unique opportunity for Parisians to learn about the lesser known
artwork by this versatile American filmmaker. Besides his work in
visual arts, Rappaport also writes about cinema and has published a
number of articles in French magazines such as Trafic.
Some of these are assembled in the book The Moviegoer who Knew
too Much (Le Spectateur qui en savait trop, 2008, Pol
Editeur) which will be available at the exhibition.
