In the context of Eric Baudelaire’s solo exhibition “Now Here Then Elsewhere”, Beirut Art Center presents a special screening of “The Anabasis of May and Fusako Shigenobu, Masao Adachi and 27 Years Without Images” in the auditorium, followed by a conversation between May Shigenobu, daughter of Fusako Shigenobu founder of the Japanese Red Army, Mirene Arsanios, writer and researcher, and Eric Baudelaire. <\/p>\n
Synopsis:<\/b> It is this complicated, dark, and always suspenseful story that Eric Baudelaire\u2014an artist renowned for using photography as a means of questioning the staging of reality\u2014chose to bring forth using the documentary format. Filmed on Super 8 mm, and in the manner of fukeiron, contemporary panoramas of Tokyo and Beirut are blended in with archival footage, TV clips and film excerpts as backdrop for May and Adachi\u2019s voices and memories. They speak of everyday life, of being a little girl in hiding, of exile, politics and cinema, and their fascinating overlap. All of which adds up not so much to an enquiry as a fragmented anamnesis.<\/p>\n
