Benedikt Reichenbach - Pasolini's Bodies and Places
In 1980 in Rome, a small cooperative around film criticsĀ Michele ManciniĀ andĀ Giuseppe PerrellaĀ produced a 600-page book of black-and-white photographs entitledĀ Pier Paolo Pasolini: Corpi e Luoghi, dedicated to the work of Italian director, poet and writerĀ Pier Paolo Pasolini. With its relentless and playful classification of some 2,000 film stills arranged under the categories ābodiesā and āplacesā, quotation here is understood as a form of āappropriationā, as a practical use of an archive.
In keeping with the great filmmakerās credo,Ā Pier Paolo Pasolini: Corpi e LuoghiĀ is a colossal attempt to take this enormous amount of material, in book form, where it wants to go.Ā Pasoliniās Bodies and PlacesĀ is a new quasi-facsimiled edition in English.Ā ManciniĀ andĀ PerrellaĀ introduce their compilation of quoted images with a compilation of texts byĀ PasoliniĀ where he describes his own research of bodies and places for his films.
640 pages, 21 x 22cm, hardcover, Edition Patrick Frey.
