‘Elegies’ derives from ‘Histoire(s) du cinema’ (1998), published after the completion of an eight-part video project by Jean-Luc Godard (1930–2022). Composed almost entirely of visual, textual, and auditory quotes, that book assimilates the course of the 20th century in the history of the movie industry, merging fiction and documentary in a speculative and intricate allegory. The content of ‘Elegies’ – chosen for the specific field of the architectural project – stages an opportunistic reinterpretation of the original. The juxtaposition of text and images aims at revealing the power of imagery within a discourse, activating its potential towards both poetic and critical projection.
