Remembering Agnès Varda

“I live by my own standards—not by men’s.” She was a director, a cinematographer, a poet, an installation artist, a key figure of the French New Wave. She was a woman. She filmed her muses, scavengers, drifters, distant uncles, lost lovers—and herself. She wandered through the Left Bank of Paris, strolled down Rue Daguerre, flew to San Francisco and Cuba, and eventually returned to the beach she loved most. She was Agnès Varda. This August, Giloo presents 14 handpicked works by Varda—black and white, color, documentary, fiction, film stock, and DV. Two years after her farewell, we invite you to once again meet her—at her sharpest, and her kindest.
