[Frameworks] Jean-Gabriel Périot at the MoMA Monday & North American Tour

[steve holmgren]

Jean-Gabriel Périot, born in France in 1974, has over the past fifteen
years perfected an innovative filmmaking approach by focusing on archival
editing. Moving image and photographic archives make up the raw material of
his shorts, which are edited to create an impressionistic story or
narrative, typically aided by compelling soundtracks.  Périot’s work is
distinguished for its intense, emotional approach to contemporary and
historic political themes.
Despite the labor intensive process of compiling a film via multiple edited
images, Périot has made numerous short films using digital video and/or
film that reside within combined documentary/essay, animation, and
experimental genres.  His works have been honored with many prizes and
shown worldwide in numerous festivals, institutions, and cinemas.
