LA VILLA SANTO SOSPIR
COCTEAU AND THE VILLA SANTO SOSPIR
Un film plus axé sur les dessins et les tableaux que sur l’acte de peindre .Ce sont des fresques des dessins,
des tatouages sur les murs, des tapisseries reprenant pour la plupart des scènes de la mythologie grecque
COCTEAU AND THE VILLA SANTO SOSPIR Jean Cocteau “tatooed” the walls of the
house, decorating each room after a different mythological theme. Through the Greek
Orpheus’myth, he explores the problematic of the relationship between the artist and his
creations, between imagination and reality. The film highlights his paintings, drawings and
frescoes.
