Michelangelo Antonioni — Il maestro del cinema moderno | EYE Filmmuseum Amsterdam | Exhibition | 2015

EYE presents a major exhibition devoted to Italian director Michelangelo Antonioni. With his famous trilogy The Adventure, The Night and Eclipse, Antonioni became one of the most innovative directors of the 20th century.
A stylistic perfectionist, he renewed the grammar of film by thinking less in terms of narrative and more in terms of image. Film excerpts projected onto thirteen big exhibition screens show the overpowering visual force of his images. The exhibition also features unique documents, photographs and letters from the Antonioni archive in Ferrara, birthplace of the director.

“Al sinds zijn opening slaagt Eye erin exposities die in een duffe verzameling vitrines met brieven en affiches dreigen te ontaarden, tot cinematografische avonturen te maken. Ook nu is dat gelukt….”
