Simone de Beauvoir told me, 2016


Films, Moving Images, Video Art

Simone de Beauvoir told us that for woman there is no other way out than to work for her liberation. In her video-art work “Simone de Beauvoir told me…” artist and filmmaker Monika K. Adler employs the art historical tradition of the ‘portrait-miniature’ to communicate and re-contextualise de Beauvoir’s iconic words through a cyclical mirror performance with an unexpected conclusion.
