Lost Art: A Cargo Cult Romance -- Description du film [en anglais] :
« In Lost Art: A Cargo Cult Romance, Vera Frenkel addresses the question of value and meaning-making in relation to artworks and other cultural objects. Stemming from this phenomenon, questions of power, consumerism, and other (neoliberal) 'millennial fantasies' are explored through a wide-ranging narrative which incorporates elements of the documentary style. Lost Art tells the story of a 1977 painting created at the first International Seminar of Rendering in Banff, Alberta. The work in question is a rendering of a winged prison toilet composed by four individuals (Jean Duryea, Wanda Nowotko, Doug Haynes, and Doug Morton) which subsequently vanished. »
