是次回顧展於2021年5月18日至6月6日舉行,展映桑堤艾格曼15套作品,帶領觀眾欣賞她在藝術美學上的突破,以及對社會公義的關注。她的電影既注重個人體驗,亦不忘表達鮮明的政治批判。她來自比利時猶太裔家庭,是大屠殺倖存者的後代;她也是個浪人,曾旅居紐約及巴黎等地。她的背景和經歷如何塑造她看世界的方式,是她作品常見的主題。
Featuring 15 of Akerman’s most revered works, the retrospective which will take place between 18 May and 6 June 2021 would again highlight the director’s standing as one of the most aesthetically audacious and socially conscious artists in the history of cinema. At once personal and political, Akerman’s films juxtaposes her own background a descendant of a Jewish Belgian family who survived the Holocaust, and a traveler who lived in New York, Paris and more with the many historical issues which shaped her own existence and perceptions of the world.
