PRODUCTION STATEMENT
For 2 months, Édouard de Luze and Charles Derenne traveled around Los-Angeles filming more than 30 personalities linked to the art world, with the aim of creating a film that could inspire a new wave of artists, as well as people who have never felt particularly attracted to art.
It appears that nowadays people tend to visit museums more than movie theaters. The ambition of our installation is to give access to an insider view of the L.A art scene to a wider audience via a unique film installation in museums around the world.
