This show presents a contemporary perspective of a selection of videos from the Gallet Archive.
These videos were created on the basis of a proposal by Pascal-Emanuel Gallet, an official with the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, within the framework of the festivals that he organized in Latin American and the Baltic countries in the 1980s and 1990s. Since 1985, every year a French and a Latin American filmmaker have been commissioned to make a video of a “travel diary” both in France and Latin America. A total of 37 travel diaries were made. A South Korean artist and others from Latin America, France and the Baltic countries converge in the free, changing territory of video art.
