Description

This first monograph on the conceptual work of the Montreal-based artist features fifteen years of prodigious creation around the investigation of time. A wristwatch which takes an entire millennium to to complete one rotation (Lost in Time), and film depicting a pianist suspended from the ceiling of a concert hall playing a piece by Guillaume Lekeu (180°) are just of few of the works that address and in fact embody the concept of transformation. Three original essays expose, in video and musical works, a central notion of time in Bernatchez's work that is linear, cyclical, reinvented, immaterial, and yet sensed in body and soul. In English and French.
