National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA) Seoul presents 16 films of Philippe Garrel in the Film and Video Theater and displays film installations based on the themes of his films in the exhibition space at the same time. The films of Jean-Luc Godard, Chantal Akerman, and Jean Cocteau have been shown at an installation at Pompidou Centre, but this is the world’s first show in which Philippe Garrel’s films have been recomposed into an exhibition form. Three of his black and white films are exhibited in the form of 35mm film and video installations. The exhibition ‘Philippe Garrel-A Dazzling Despair’ tries to present the art world of Philippe Garrel, who sublimated the deep despair of humans into dazzlingly glorious beauty in the area of modern art.
