David Claerbout’s Birdsong explores creation, destruction, and solitude through a mesmerising video installation set in a historic castle deep within a forest. Text in English, French and Dutch.
Birdsong brings together three video works by David Claerbout – The Woodcarver and the Forest, Birdcage and Backwards Growing Tree – each a meditation on time, perception and the poetics of the natural world. In an era dominated by speed and distraction, Claerbout reclaims the longue durée, offering a contemplative, detoxed form of filmmaking.
Accompanied by a poem by Stefan Hertmans, this volume explores the myths of digitisation, the rhythms of nature, growth and degrowth. Birdsong is a visual journey through the imaging ideas that the artist has developed over the past decade.
This publication coincides with Claerbout's exhibition At the window at Gaasbeek Castle.
