There Is Nothing Old Under The Sun (1)
<\/strong>1986<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Whenever I speak about Paris, a strange coincidence comes to mind. The first time I went there, in 1972, in one of the many parks scattered throughout the city, I noticed a small object with several little hourglasses, surrounded by a phrase written in Latin: Nothing new under the sun.<\/p>\n

The hourglasses were a measuring device for calculating the length of time a child could stay on a merry-go-round. A few years later, reading Peter Handke’s 1975 story ‘A Moment of True Feeling’, I found a description of the same object that had caught my attention. This coincidence – someone’s glance falling on the same small object amid the endless number of possibilities that a city like Paris offers – has always seemed strange to me, partly because it didn’t require specific affinities or synchronicities or similar histories.<\/p>\n

A few days ago I was reading a book by Jorge Luis Borges and thought of all this again, when the Argentine poet writes: ‘There is nothing old under the sun.’ It seems to me that this phrase can encompass many of the meanings and motivations that have always accompanied my work.<\/p>\n

The Shipping Forecast<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

A man walks down a road along the seafront; a woman hangs out the washing, humming a song; in the background, children play in a clearing; a little further off, there’s a circus tent and carousel.<\/p>\n\n

This brief sequence, only a few frames long, is from Fellini’s La Strada [1954].<\/p>\n\n

That moment is fixed in my head – the music, the white sheet, the funfair, the houses, and in the distance, the sea. In this brief passage, a domestic scene devoid of emphasis or rhetoric, in this very sweet encounter, a whole new way of looking at landscape was revealed to me.<\/p>\n\n

In the same way, listening to the shipping forecast has a profound effect on me. Broadcast every day on the radio, with its monotonous succession of ‘knots’, ‘gale force six’ or ‘seven’, it does not stir up dreams of adventures in unchartered seas, but rather evokes the sweet lullaby of waves gently breaking on the sands of some distant shore.<\/p>\n\n

Both these moments continue to run through my mind, over and over, leaving me with an image of a seascape, a scene which becomes altogether familiar, and which is perhaps the ideal setting for this game which is life always moving and yet always fixed and unchanging. (p.227)<\/p>\n\n

I completed this series with fragments of images discovered almost by accident while walking down the street, and it is no coincidence that the last image contains these words printed on a folded newspaper lying on the pavement: ‘come pensare per immagini’ (‘how to think through images’). This sentence holds the essence of all my work, as does this sentence from [the philosopher and friar] Giordano Bruno: ‘to think is to speculate with images.'(p.23)<\/p>\n\n

In many of these photographs, signs, symbols, wordings and objects at first seem motionless, pictured against blue skies as though caught in free fall, but then they hit the ground and move off in different directions. As part of my process, I chase after objects and come across other objects, spaces and images during the chase. This, however, should not be read as a game or technique, because this kind of fragmentation of the gaze takes place in reality, where the pieces exist in a random order, and are continually conglomerated with pieces belonging to other image systems.(p.41)<\/p>\n\n
