L’histoire de l’art est un long récit qui nous raconte ce qui s’est passé mais qui est incapable d’ouvrir de nouvelles voies. Les peintures deviennent ici une image furtive. Le film repose sur le concept de l’attente, qui, comme l’art, est en soi une absurdité un comportement incessant, sans fin ni finalité.
Art history is a long tale which tells us what happened in the past, but cannot tell us where new opportunities lie. Each historic painting on which artistic geniuses spent their lives becomes a mere fleeting image in the movie. The concept of the film rests on the idea of waiting, which like art itself is an absurdity some kind of eternal behaviour with no purpose, no ending.
