David Wharry
Born in the United Kingdom in 1950, lives and works in France since 1975. Since 1978 David Wharry has been working on GENERAL PICTURE, an evolving work currently made up of about twenty “episodes”. These films can be shown together, separately or in different orders. GENERAL PICTURE explores the fundamental components of the cinematographic spectacle and in particular its theatrical aspect, the notion of projection, the relationship between the projected image and the spectator. In this crime (wanted by its main accomplice, the spectator) GENERAL PICTURE involves different genres of commercial cinema, and its structure and its narrative interweaving allow and generate this freedom of movement without guilt.
