Georges SAULTERRE Jean-Gabriel TORDJMAN - Vide?o... Lot n° 25

This is a sequence extracted from a video that shows sculptures made by Georges Saulterre in a cosmic space designed by Jean-Gabriel Tordjman. The sculptures are in the effigy of a young woman, repeatedly reproduced in red or white sandstone, with long hair and a broken body. Together, they form a round, to the rhythm of the swirls of a galaxy. Suddenly, the mechanism appears, all in gears, which allows the cosmos to move. The figures eventually fall. This short sequence alone contains a poetic mythology, a tale not devoid of humour that evokes the human condition and its inevitable fall.
