Désert, vent, feu

2011 30 min
Leaving soon

Ce court métrage documentaire est un voyage intime et évocateur au plus profond du cœur, de l’esprit et du regard de Georgia O’Keeffe, d’Emily Carr et de Frida Kahlo – trois des artistes les plus remarquables du 20e siècle. Reprenant les mots de ces femmes, extraits de leur correspondance et de leurs journaux, le film met au jour trois démarches de création très personnelles dans toute leur subtile et fascinante diversité. En 30 minutes méticuleusement préparées et réalisées avec art, Désert Vent Feu présente par la photographie la vision qui inspire l’œil du peintre.

Education

Ages 15 to 17
School subjects
Before screening the film, familiarize students with the essentials of early 20th-century painting styles such as Modernism, Cubism, Surrealism or Expressionism. Prepare slideshows of work by Georgia O’Keeffe, Emily Carr and Frida Khalo for study and comparison. After the film, discuss any common threads running through the three artists’ work, in terms of both style and message. Assign students to research how the artists’ work was received by the public and whether their gender impacted their reception.
