Anri Sala - Why The Lion Roars: Forecasts
Ce livre d'artiste est issu de l'oeuvre Why The Lion Roars. Anri Sala a crĂ©e une liste de 57 grands classiques, assignant Ă chacun une tempĂ©rature entre -11 et +45 degrĂ©s Celsius. Un thermomĂštre Ă l'extĂ©rieur de l'espace d'exposition mesurait la tempĂ©rature, dĂ©clenchant un programme de montage. Quand la tempĂ©rature changeait, le film correspondant Ă la nouvelle tempĂ©rature reprenait automatiquement lĂ oĂč il s'Ă©tait arrĂȘtĂ©, interrompant le rĂ©cit et provoquant des collisions de sens imprĂ©vues.
For this installation, Albanian artist Anri Sala (born 1974) created a list of 57 classic feature films, assigning each a temperature between -11 and +45 degrees Celsius. A thermometer outside the exhibition space measured the temperature, triggering a film-editing program. When the temperature changed, the film corresponding to the new temperature automatically began where it had previously left off, interrupting the narrative and provoking unplanned collisions of meaning.
