This reference work presents the full range of the filmmaker's
artistry (photography, painting and music) through the optic of his
films. It is an original work combining all facets of his creation
for the first time, bringing a fresh vision of his cinematographic
work. At the heart of the book is the exhibition curator Matthieu
Orlean's unpublished interview with Gus Van Sant in Portland in
June 2015, discussing the whole scope of his work and inspirations
through a network of images organized into themes. The work also
explores the work of other artists whose heritage Gus Van Sant
believes he is continuing: heritage beat, pop, rock, and
experimental filmmakers, writers and visual artists like William
Burroughs, William Eggleston, Harmony Korine and Ed Ruscha. There
is also critical analysis of the many themes Gus Van Sant tackles
in his work related to his own personal reflections on life,
accompanied by first-hand anecdotes and an in-depth appraisal of
the production processes used in each movie, from the experimental
shorts of the 70s to Sea of Trees, presented at the Cannes Festival
in May 2015, soon to be released in cinemas. The monograph also
feature essays by Stephane Bouquet, Benjamin Thorel, Bertrand
Schefer and Stefano Boni, who provide their own interpretations of
his protean work. Each essay tackles specific aspects of Gus Van
Sant's creation through reflections on the heterogenous nature of
his methods and approach.
