Jeu de Paume pays tribute to Belgian filmmaker, artist and writer Chantal Akerman (Brussels 1950 – Paris 2015) with an exceptional exhibition, conceived by the Bozar-Centre for Fine Arts, The Chantal Akerman Foundation and Royal Film Archive of Belgium.
Chantal Akerman: Travelling outlines her unique journey from the early beginnings in Brussels to various deserts, from her first films to her final installations in 2015. Featuring unique and previously unseen footage, production, as well as work documents from her archives, this is the first major retrospective of the Brussels-based artist.
The exhibition traces the various stages of Chantal Akerman’s career and also sheds light on the different locations where she has worked and filmed. It also showcases the versatility of her work, including film, television, literature, and installations.
This exhibition was conceived by the Palais des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles, the Chantal Akerman Foundation and CINEMATEK, and produced in collaboration with Jeu de Paume for its presentation in Paris.
