La Jetée (Chris Marker, 1962, VOSE)

La Jetée (Chris Marker, 1962) es una película francesa de ciencia ficción de 28 minutos filmada en blanco y negro. En ella, se relata la historia de un experimento de viaje en el tiempo llevado a cabo tras una guerra atómica. Si bien es una película, el director la define como una fotonovela, pues se realizó filmando una serie de fotografías que dan contexto a la narración que las acompaña y apenas cuenta con una breve secuencia de imágenes en movimiento. 12 monos (1995), de Terry Gilliam, se inspiró en La Jetée. David Bowie también se inspiró en esta película para el videoclip de la canción Jump, They Say (1993), dirigido por Mark Romanek. (Wikipedia)

Sans Soleil (Chris Marker, 1983, VOSE)

Sans Soleil is a meditation on the nature of human memory and the inability to recall the context and nuances of memory and as a result, how the perception of personal and global histories are affected. Stretching the genre of documentary, this experimental essay-film is a rich composition of thoughts, images and scenes, mainly from Japan and Guinea-Bissau, "two extreme poles of survival". Some other scenes were filmed in Iceland, Paris, and San Francisco. A female narrator reads from letters supposedly sent to her by the (fictitious) cameraman Sandor Krasna. Sans Soleil is often labelled as a documentary or travelogue, however it contains fictional elements and moves from one location to another without regard to a location or character-based narrative.

Me gustan mucho los colores y lo divertido de ciertas de sus fotos. Me recuerda un poco a Alec Soth, de la agencia Magnum.

Sixteen Google Street Views (Jon Rafman)

"The images in Sixteen Google Street Views depict solitary individuals in a variety of contemporary landscapes," Rafman says in his book. "Street View photography presents a very different perspective on the relation of the individual to his world than the art of previous historical periods. The romantics portrayed solitary figures in an encounter with the sublime in which man felt both insignificant within nature but also transcendent over it. The romantic encounter with the sublime, moreover, pointed towards the individual's inner powers and towards his freedom." (wired.co.uk - wired places)
