Exhibitions
Delegates are invited to visit two fascinating exhibitions. Georges Méliès, Magicien du Cinéma, will take place at the Cinémathèque Française. Pleins Feux sur la Couleur! will take place at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.
Pleins feux sur la couleur !(Spotlights on Color!)
The theme of color in cinema, addressed in the programming of the Cinémathèque Française, is illustrated at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France through a presentation of heritage documents under the title of Pleins Feux sur la Couleur! It brings together elements from its collections, as well as from the CNC’s Archives Françaises du Film. Dialogues between sometimes unusual objects, works, and archives of cinema productions allow the greater public to understand the place of color in cinema within the history of color technologies and sensibility.
