Synopsis

History and Interregnum looks at the relationship between history and fiction through the practice of re-enactment in three works by Vancouver-based artist Stan Douglas. Each work in this fully illustrated paperback publication draws upon Portugals recent history in which a multicultural arts movement was ultimately eclipsed by new configurations of power. Douglass film, video installations and photography have been exhibited internationally at Documenta IX, X, XI and the Venice Biennale in 1990, 2001 and 2005.

About the Author

Depuis la fin des années 1980, Stan Douglas (né en 1960 à Vancouver, où il vit et travaille) réalise des films, des photographies et des installations procédant au réexamen d'événements passés ou de lieux singuliers. Ses œuvres ont souvent pour point de départ un cadre local duquel sont développées des problématiques plus larges. Naviguant entre nouvelles technologies et techniques traditionnelles, Douglas emprunte aux genres hollywoodiens (le thriller comme le Western) et aux classiques de la littérature (notamment Samuel Beckett, Herman Melville, et Franz Kafka) pour constituer le cadre contextuel de ses recherches artistiques.
